Be careful with the advice here gents - you will NOT have your pay abated is you are already on sick leave AND have passed your trial period (if, for example, you are a new entrant).

However, check when you return (or by calling the office Sat/Monday) to ensure that your pay isn't inadvertently stopped. Your DOM or Line Manager has to complete a pretty complicated spreadsheet for HR Wages in Sheffield and it's quite easy to make a genuine error.

i cant remember but in order to get paid you need to have gone sick either 24 or 48 hrs before a strike
