Statutory Sick Pay


If you're an employee and unable to work because you're ill you may be able to get Statutory Sick Pay. It is paid by your employer and can be paid for up to 28 weeks.
Who can get Statutory Sick Pay

If you're working for an employer under a contract of service (even if you've only just started), you're entitled to Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) if the following apply:

• you're sick for at least four days in a row (including weekends and bank holidays and days that you do not normally work)
• you're earning at least £90 a week (£95 a week from 6 April 2009)

If you have more than one job, you may get SSP from each employer.
Please read 'SSP - eligibility and what days you will be paid for' for more information.

• Statutory Sick Pay - eligibility and what days you will be paid for

How to get Statutory Sick Pay

To get SSP you must:

• tell your employer that you are sick
• provide your employer with some form of medical evidence

Please read 'SSP - telling your employer you are sick and providing evidence' for more information.

• Statutory Sick Pay - telling your employer you are sick and providing evidence

How much do you get

The standard rate for SSP is £79.15 a week.
Your employer will work out a daily rate of SSP if necessary by dividing the weekly rate by the number of days you’d normally work in that week. For working out SSP the week begins with a Sunday.

How it's paid

SSP is usually paid on your normal payday in the same way as your normal earnings.
SSP is subject to tax and National Insurance contributions. However if you only receive SSP your earnings may not be high enough to pay tax unless you get other payments on top of your SSP.

What happens if SSP is not payable or it comes to an end?

If you cannot get SSP or SSP has ended your employer must fill in form SSP1 and give this to you. On the form, your employer must say why SSP has not been paid or why it is ending and the last date of payment. Form SSP1 is used to support a claim for Employment and Support Allowance.
You can download form SSP1 from the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) website. There are two versions of the form, one you can print and then complete using a pen, or one you can complete online and then print.

Occupational sick pay schemes

If your employer has a sick pay scheme, which is equal to, or more than SSP, they do not have to operate the SSP scheme. They may also have different rules for payment, which you must keep to.
Please read 'sick pay rights' for more information about occupational sick pay schemes.

• Sick pay rights (employment section)

If you are sick after 28 weeks of occupational sick pay, or if this ends earlier and you are not entitled to SSP, your employer must give you form SSP1 for you to claim Employment and Support Allowance.
