My previous gf was a nurse, had been in the position about 3 years, very hard working and never off sick. She was called into the office one day (This was 10 years ago) and asked why she hadn't used any sick days, she was then told that she needed to take some of these sick days.
It appears that sick day entitlement was treated like additional holidays by most nurses in that trust, and someone not taking them reflected badly on the others.
