Pay when you're on sick leave
Not many, employers pay sick pay forever. If you’re off work for long enough, at some point you’ll likely be reduced to half-pay, and then to nil pay.
Each employer has different policies and different schedules of pay when it comes to sick leave. Managers aren’t always up to speed on these. So it’s important that you make sure you are. Often, people who get in touch with us didn’t know their timetable of long-term sick pay, and were shocked when they experienced a dip in their income.
