This is laughable. Surely it's a typo and should read "exclusive of bank holidays". 20 days exclusive is in my experience a minimum out in the real world - I havent had a job with less than that since 1974! My last proper job was 25 exclusive (but I had been there 15 years). Also in a "professional" environment, unless you are in a large or LG organisation with all the encumburances of HR departments etc, formal sick leave doesn't generally exist, it works on trust.
We owe the dead nothing but the truth.
