Anyone been off sick recently?
As per the title, has anyone been sick recently? Did you get paid? Asking for a friend who’s struggling with a heavy cold & doesn’t want to pass it to others

Re: Anyone been off sick recently?
I was off first two weeks of the year. First week self cert., second week sick note. No problem with pay. No hassle from manager. From the sounds of it i’m one of the lucky ones.

Bit of a coincidence, with the parliamentary quizzing coming up .. Have they asked Simon to come in for an informal chat regarding his sickness?

Nobody off sick at our place in the last six months, has had sick pay witheld.
I am pretty sure that if it was that easy to withold sick pay from people, they would have done it years ago.

Several people in our office have had sick pay withheld. All are pursuing claims via ACAS with a form they got from our CWU rep.DirtyHarry wrote: ↑18 Feb 2023, 08:31Nobody off sick at our place in the last six months, has had sick pay witheld.

Management deciding themselves who should and should not be paid at my unit based on no criteria whatsoever just plain B&Hwandle wrote: ↑21 Feb 2023, 09:58Several people in our office have had sick pay withheld.
