That's exactly what should happen for an employee. They are entitled to 28 weeks of SSP from their employer and from the date their SSP entitlement ends are eligible for ns-ESA.

Providing they've paid the correct amount of NI contributions in tax years April 2017 to March 2019. I know you know this, just adding it for anyone else that's reading it, as well as the OP.
