Statutory Sick Pay to Be Removed for Those Asked To Shield
Monday 06 July, 2020 Written by Simon Collyer
DWP UPDATE - From 1/8/2020, the government has announced its intention to remove Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) for those who have been told to shield because they are 'clinically extremely vulnerable'.
Advice to shield will be paused from 1/8/2020. Over 2 million people have been advised to shield.
ABC Note: The weekly rate for Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) is £95.85 for up to 28 weeks. It is paid for the days an employee normally works - called 'qualifying days' in the same way as wages, for example on the normal payday, deducting tax and National insurance.
