Anyway, if you are employed by HCL then ask them.
At the moment I am not on contract. I am employed. I need hip replacement - minimum 10 days off work. My employer only covers first 7 days. I was offered SSP for other 3 days - but that will not even keep my butler in gladiator outfits. So I will use annual leave. I carried over 5 days from last year anyway.
Sometimes I regrest not being employed by a big bank anymore. I got 6 weeks off from JPM. In fact you can take off 6 months a year after one year. And all year after 5 years! Just as well given the number of people they give mental health issues to...

Just because you are isolating doesn't mean you are ill... does your client not allow you to work remotely?

Do you receive a daily rate which goes to an umbrella --> umbrella should pay
Do you receive a daily rate that goes to your Ltd and Ltd pays you salary --> Ltd should pay or even better keep on working and invoicing (if working remote and not feeling too ill)

Why do you need sick pay? You are still being paid your normal wage through the company so are still technically working for them.
All that is happening is you are not billing and the gov don't cover that.
You have tried googling this first haven't you?
While you are off sick take the time to learn how your company works a little better.Last edited by northernladuk; 5 February 2021, 10:12.
