DazBob Posted January 5, 2022 Posted January 5, 2022 I'm the only one in a house of 4 who hasn't had it -unless I have at some point but been asymptomatic. From the people I know it definitely seems that there are now more who have had it than haven't, which wasn't the case up to a month or so ago. Quote

What i do find a disgrace is the fact that she’s frontline NHS and comes into close contact with dozens of folk on a daily basis, yet she won’t get paid one fucking penny for being off sick with Covid this week. Love the NHS Boris? Yeh right - Cunt. Are you saying that nurses don't get any sick pay? Quote

I've just had the quickest of ganders, and the rcn web site seems to indicate that conditions depend upon the contract. Seems to be something around "Agenda for change" contracts etc. Maybe older contracts are different, I've no idea. Quote

Seriously though, is it common practice for GPs to have staff with no sick pay on their contract? Seems out of order that. Burnden Bogs- has she delved into it, or approached the union or nursing bodies for advice? She will qualify for ssp- whether £95 is fair is a different question of course, but it's obviously better than nowt. Quote

I dunno, i’ve never claimed it in my life personally. Quote

Who knows. Quote
