Sick pay

[Elsa TLC]

Ive worked at a school for 7 months, as a caretaker. Am I entitled to sick pay.

Got a cold, nothing bad but Id rather stay in the warm today.

If you are an employmee almost certainly yes. But quite a few employers in the public sector don’t pay for the first few days as an deterrent to staff who try it on, so check your employment contract

Some empolyers only pay SSP, we get full pay from day one for 6 months and half pay thereafter. Some school caretakers are employed by a seperate company so not garanteed the same conditions as a direct employment from the school.

You should get it then.

You should go to work, entitled or not. It doesn't sound like you're going to spread it to anyone so a bit of a sniffle really isn't an excuse.

No one there probably, it's Easter holidays. OP should man up, I don't think he's a socialist.

Statutory Sick pay is as per the above link, Your employment contract will state if you are entitled to anything else (e.g. 6-12 days full pay etc)

You do realise he’s had life threatening CA and the immune system gets damaged.

It is easter holidays and not much to do.
What there is to do is a little bit of hard graft. Id rather save myself than make me worse.

I will go in tomorrow as a teacher wants access.

I do more hours than I should so I dont feel guilty.
