My husband was off work for three days last week with chronic toothache/abcess. He has worked for the company for almost a year and this is the first time he has been off sick. He handed in a self certificate and his boss told him today he would only be getting two days wages as he didnt have to pay him for the first three days.. Is ths right, and it so is there anything we can claim because two days wages is only about £70-£80.??

It depends what his contract says. If his contract says that the company only pays SSP, then it's right, because the first 3 days of any claim are 'waiting days' and unpaid. If his contract says that he gets full pay for any initial period of sickness (at my place it's 3 months), then it's wrong.Signature removed for peace of mind0
