Sick Leave
If you are not fit to fulfil your normal working duties you should take sick leave which will be paid in accordance with standard NHS policy as detailed in your contract of employment. You should let your practice (or PDs and trainer if it is a Tuesday) know as early as possible that you are sick and will not be able to come to work. At induction your practice will let you know how they would like you to do this.
For the first working week you are sick you should fill in a self certification form, after this you will require a sick note from your own GP or specialist. Please note that any time off in addition to annual leave and study leave over 2 weeks in any one year will need to be made up at the end of your training programme. This is to ensure that you have enough training time to achieve the required competencies. Such time off will include sick leave, unpaid leave, compassionate leave, leave for childcare etc.
