I am new to this board, wish I had found something like this years ago. Am about to start Acitretin, when the consultant decides to send me an appointment. Anyway, mine is ok ish.
However, I am an HR Manager so to answer your question about SSP. SSP means Statutory Sick Pay and is paid by the Government. Companies do not have to pay you, it depends on their Sickness Absence policy coupled with how long you have worked there usually. You can get SSP for up to 28 weeks, although it is reasonable to assume that you may not still have your job if you haven't been there long. SSP amount per week is £87.55.
Hope this helps.

Hi this is true ( by the way welcome Soosie nice to have your contribution on the forum ) yes how SSP works if I am right is the employer pays the staff member and then reclaims it from the government
So BRIGHTEYES will get it paid by her employer if they still employ her. Is that correct
I hope to see more of you on the forum Soosie hope to hear how Acetretin works for you feel free to start a thread in introductions and if in doubt give any of the forum helpers a shout just put a note in the chatting thread, or anywhere else it will be spotted
