If you’ve been off sick for 7 days or less
If you have been ill for 7 days or less you don’t need to see a Doctor. You can complete a Self Certification form yourself. However some employers insist on a Doctor’s note regardless. A Doctors note under these circumstances may involve a charge.
Many employers have their own self-certification forms. If your employer doesn’t have its own form please use the link below. You do not need to see a Doctor.
Ask your employer for Statutory Sick Pay
