COVKID

My wife works part-time and has recently been off sick for the first time in 5yrs.She does'nt pay National insurance,although she paid up to the retirement age.Where can we find out what she is entitled to claim.The DSS site only deals with sick pay between the ages,16to 65.Thank you.

After 65 it is dependant on the employer paying any sick pay rather than SSP.
