'Italy’s worst employee': Female teacher who avoided work for 20 years using sick leave sacked

Italy has named its worst employee -- a teacher who avoided going to work for 20 years using the sick leave option, as well as other like alternatives holidays and permits to attend conferences, a media report said. In its report, the Daily Mail said that Cinzio Paolina De Lio was employed by a secondary school near Venice to teach literature and philosophy -- but only showed up for four out of the 24 years she worked there.
