When do I go back to work?

Was issued a note from the doctor yesterday 5th sept for 2 weeks from date was 5th and to date on note 19th). Does this mean I go back to work on 19th or does it include this date? Basically go back work Friday 19th or on the following Monday as only work Monday to Friday?

    The following Monday.
  • Hi - I work in payroll and if we received a sicknote date 5th Sept for two weeks, then we would expect you back at work on Fri 19th.

    The reason for this is:

    Dated 5th Sept - this is counted as the first day.

    Duration of two weeks = 14 days

    Counting 14 days startin on the 5th means your note will expire on the 18th, so back at work on the 19th

    Hope that helps
