Where as the multiple days off are treated as individual episodes and it's a simple form of multiplying the episodes which gives a high score.
The Bradford Factor is there to trap those who take the Mickey and have a poor attendance record. The problem is, the BF can also trap those who are genuinely ill. So it's good for businesses trying to discourage high staff sickness but not so kind on the employee who is genuinely ill.

Surely that would affect the sort of person you would actually want to employ - That pattern could actually apply to an extremely dedicated employee (someone who's seriously ill but forces themselves to come into work except on their really bad days)
Then again sick leave seems silly to me (another self-employed person. and as a result not had a day of sick it 12 years)
