A new study from reed.co.uk has found that nearly one in six working Brits (14 per cent) – that’s 4.3 million people – admit to ‘faking-it’ for a day off work. From spluttering down the phone with a faux cold to locking themselves out of the house, truant employees are coming up with new and exaggerated excuses every day to avoid work.
