0 a person who is absent from work without permission
I know that many members of the public rant and rage about the shirkers, the skivers and the scroungers.
Pensioner applicants are not skivers and must not be made to feel uncomfortable when they make their claims.
Are all those people skivers, shirkers and scroungers?
Disconnections would only help the skivers at the expense of the honest customer.
They are not; they are something very old in politics—skivers.
They are not skivers by any stretch of the imagination.
These are not skivers or shirkers; they are men who genuinely want work and who cannot find it.
Unfortunately, the idle, the skivers and the rogues are often very much better off than the conscientious ones.
