Business Advisory Network for Flu: Sickness Self Certification

Please find attached two Q&As on Sickness Self Certification aimed at employees and employers. These have been produced by DH, DWP and the Cabinet Office to clarify the existing regulations around sickness self certification.

The relevant Q&As have been published on DirectGov (http://www.direct.gov.uk/en/Swineflu/DG_180996) and are due to appear on BusinessLink shortly. A similar document has been sent to GPs and this can be found on the DH website at http://www.dh.gov.uk/en/Publicationsandstatistics/Publications/PublicationsPolicyAndGuidance/DH_106298
