    can you not read the policies and procedures manual for a full version of the sickness and absence policy before you inform HR?

    but if you ask me, it seems ridiculous to have a policy where you can't get sick pay if you injure yourself whilst keeping fit. if that were the case, they should have made you aware of it when you started.

    Didn't have copy at home, had one in my locker and on the intranet, but couldn't access the network from home

    just phoned hr, they seemed fine with " turned ankle and bone broke" followed by " kickabout with a few friends". Her first question was "dare I ask how it happened?" I think assuming it had been a drunken fall!
