It depends on what your companies sick pay policy is. I used to advise employers on Income Protection which sits hand in hand with SSP and other state benefits. I assume from what you say your employer doesn't offer such a scheme.gazzatt2 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 9:17 amI'm 58 but have a condition thats affected my lungs have lost 25% capacitynut flush gooner wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 8:30 amTake it easy mate, same situation as me.

Coronavirus would not sit well with me if I caught it. Still stocking up on booze for a long summer ahead. BBQ in the garden for 2 methinks. Good your employer is being responsible about this.
and take tablets that weaken the immune system the virus would not be good for me
one director was very much its all hype don't know anyone who knows someone thats got it will only pay the SSP
not sure how that would work regarding whats in the contract of employment
the other director by chance is a friend of my hospital consultant the consultant contacted him Tuesday to send me home and to isolate for 12 weeks
I run the workshop and parts department doing a lot of the admin from home but that will drop off as future bookings are slowing already
will give me a chance to tinker with my motorbikes !
to everyone on here stay safe and take care

You need to check your employment contract, some employers will put you on full pay for a period of time before they place you on SSP. Others will just put you on SSP after 4 days.

The health service here is a confused mess. My GP cannot test me because I am not allowed go to the surgery. And there are not enough public health teams to test everyone at home that needs testing and as I am a healthy man I'm not in the high risk category. But I'm also not allowed to go back to work.
For how long am I to be isolated? They don't know. Maybe 5 days. Maybe 14 days. Complete mess.
3 of my friends have separately gone on holidays, which I think given the current climate is stupidity bordering on criminal negligence.
1 - you are going to be in a plane with 200 odd people, all breathing in and out the same air. A sure fire way to get infected.
2 - you have no idea what situation you are going to find at your holiday resort / hotel / airport - one has already posted they are confined to the hotel and only allowed to go to the supermarket ( some fucking holiday that is )
3- - no guarantee that you will be able to get home - airlines going bust / countries closing borders & travel.
I fully expect these people to scream loudly and want the government to do something to repatriate them if they get stuck
Mindless, stupid, ignorance at its best. If the whole of Italy was on lockdown a week or so ago, you just know elsewhere will follow sooner rather than later.

As per my previous post, 1 of the aforesaid 3 is posting on Facebook about their flight home being cancelled and they may be stuck.
Wow, who would have thought it - rink stupidity but as a Chelsea fan, that’s taken as standard.
They close the tube and loads of people aren't getting to work including front line staff many of whom have no parking availability at their work. If it comes to the tube being closed then we really are in the shit.augie wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 2:00 pmStuartL wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 1:52 pmStuartL wrote: ↑Mon Mar 16, 2020 8:50 pmHope all okay DB10, sending big man hugs to help you feel better my friend.DB10GOONER wrote: ↑Sun Mar 15, 2020 9:45 pmAnyballs I'm in self isolation because a fucking idiot on my project team was in Madrid on hols last week and came into work with symptoms.

I work in an Irish Post Office and every day we are getting an updated list of countries where mail will not be delivered to - it is staggering to see all these countries (and there are loads of them) that have closed their borders, and yet we are at the mercy of people being responsible enough to travel cos our government wont close airports
Was watching sky news at lunchtime and could not believe that a uk government spokesman announced that there is zero chance of transport into and around London being closed I would have expected that the tube would have been closed long ago The uk government are looking even more blaise about this than we are, and this is coming from a guy who thinks that some of the steps we have taken are a bit too far
Well thats the best outcome for you then.gazzatt2 wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 1:38 pmas im working from home I'm being paid at the momentnut flush gooner wrote: ↑Thu Mar 19, 2020 11:27 amIt depends on what your companies sick pay policy is.

Fukcing chaos here! Seems Spanish government are set to pass a vote to close down all hotels from the 27th and it now is set to include self contained apartments like the ones we are staying in - although they are perfect isolation units!!
They are telling all Brits to get home before then but there are NO FLIGHTS!! Not sure what they are going to do! Make us homeless?
Need our government to support an airline to fly empty planes over here to repatriate British nationals. Anyone got any ideas that we might not have covered please message or comment. Please share. Thank you.
I’m sure the government can’t wait to jump to the rescue of selfish, irresponsible, idiots who carried on with their holidays, regardless of what was obviously going to happen elsewhere after Italy.
Is having no sympathy a bit harsh ?
