Sick note late

Post by robert37uk »

Good morning everyone. I went sick on friday 7th august with hip arthritis . On the 8th day of my sickness i was still unwell. But couldnt get to see a doctor till yesterday monday. 17th. My Doctor gave me a sicknote backdated from the 14th august .im going to send it in today by special delivery to my manager.. Does anyone have any idea what will happen as it will be too late to put into the wages department to get paid this week probably. Will i still eventually get paid later when they do receive it This has never happened to me before so no idea what will happen thanks for any answers.

I wouldnt waste your money sending via Special Delivery ..Whats app picture shoud be sufficient.My manager didnt want to see my last Sick Note just took my word for it.
Its important to keep in contact with your manager and not to ignore any request of phone calls meetings etc
