XpertHR sick pay survey 2010: rates and qualifying periods
Author: Adam Geldman
Our survey of policy and practice among 160 employers includes access to sick pay, service-related entitlement and what happens when the time limit on payments expires.
Key points
- Almost three-quarters of surveyed organisations operate a single sick pay scheme covering all employees, with slightly more than one-fifth running two separate schemes.
- The vast majority of employers have occupational or company schemes generating payments more generous than statutory sick pay.
