Sickness Absence

You are a valuable part of the team; your attendance is important to the business and is therefore monitored. If you are unable to work for any reason, we ask that you inform the team by 9am on the morning of your absence and that it is logged on our internal system.

Following the completion of your probationary period, and on the understanding that you have complied with the Company’s absence procedures, you will be entitled to receive full pay for the first 10 days of any sickness absence in any rolling 12-month period.

If you are absent due to sickness or injury for a period or periods in excess of your maximum entitlement, you are entitled to Statutory Sick Pay which will be paid in line with the statutory requirements.

Return to work discussions

When you return to work from any absence (excluding holidays) we may hold a discussion with you on the first day of your return to work or as soon as reasonably practicable after that, in order to ensure your smooth integration back to work.

Please refer to our Sickness Absence Policy for more information including the Company’s absence procedures.
