Notice of reduction to half sick pay

[Daleyg]

Just a quick one,

I’ve noticed on pay slip that my sick pay has gone to half.

Should I have been given notice by relevant management or line manager or RM payroll that this had come into effect??

Yes usually inform you at least 2 weeks in advance.

wouldn't worry about it, seems managers are leaving people alone on the sick, obviously cant be arsed anymore and just ping elsatic bands at each other in the office. Eerie quiet when your off long term sick these days

Think what you mean if your on no pay they def do not care.

Playing the long game, till they can get you in their sights to remove from the business. It’s all there in the agreement, conduct and dismissal unless you’re pregnant

yeah after ur 12 months pay they can just dismiss u as thats a resonable time in their book, but doubt they would dismiss u before that time

After 12 months sick and when on a no-pay basis, the DSS guidelines say get rid of the employee.
Same for everyone not just RM.

Do you still get 6 months full pay and 6 months half when unable to work? Or has this changed with all the new rubbish the union agreed to?

Sick pay from 1st August 2023 will be as follows:
After 12 months, this is normally full
pay for six months followed by half pay for six months;

And they won't just sack you if you are on long term sick-unless anyone has info on this.
