Sick note requests, patients by law can self certify for the first 7 days. After 7 days, it is for the employer to determine what evidence they require, if any, considering the current situation employers should be more lenient. The government are in the process of developing an alternative form of evidence to the fit note. These will shortly be available through NHS 111 online. In the meantime employers should respect your genuine need to stay at home and follow government advice and show flexibility in the evidence they require from you.
If you have any queries please email us on [email protected] and we will respond accordingly.
