I thought that it was no longer permissible for employers to ask intrusive questions about an employee's health and that covers the nature of an illness if they are off sick. The last time I was sick my boss came right out and asked me what was wrong with me. He caught me off-guard and I didn't want to be rude so I told him but I resent his asking. Isn't this the reason doctors no longer specify an illness on a medical certificate? They are now compelled to preserve the patient's confidentiality.
What laws/regulations cover this?
What would have been an appropriate way of responding without telling him exactly what was wrong with me?
