Amid all the chatter about toxic work culture and its effects on employees, another woman has succumbed to the stress of work, this time in Thailand. Bangkok Post reported that the 30-year-old factory worker died a day after her request for sick leave was rejected by her manager.&nbsp;

Identified as May, she had been sick for a few days and was hospitalised. She worked at an electronics plant in the Samut Prakan province of Thailand. May had availed sick leave from Sep 5 to 9 after being diagnosed with an inflamed large intestine. May had provided the company with a medical certificate as well.

May was discharged after spending four days at the hospital. However, she continued to feel sick and took two more days off.&nbsp;

Since her condition hadn't improved, May requested her manager for another day off. But she was asked to come back to work since she had already been away for a long time. May was told she needed to submit another medical certificate.

May had no choice but to return to work the next day. However, after being on the floor for only 20 minutes, she collapsed, according to her friend.

She was rushed to the hospital where she underwent emergency surgery. She died from necrotising enterocolitis the following day.

Delta Electronics, May's employer, issued a statement following her death, saying that it was “devastated” on losing an employee.&nbsp;

“At Delta Electronics, our people are the foundation of our success, and we are devastated by this loss. Our priority is to provide unwavering support to the employee’s family at this trying time,” said Victor Cheng, CEO of Delta Electronics (Thailand) PCL, in a statement posted on Facebook.

He also promised to probe her death.&nbsp;

"The company has launched a comprehensive investigation to establish the facts surrounding this incident," the statement said.
