I've been off work since the start of the summer term having treatment for breast cancer. I'm having chemo, which will be followed by surgery and radiotherapy, so won't be returning for several months.
I know that I get full pay for 20 weeks/ 100 days. I've read thatonce my pay drops to 50%, I also get Statutory Sick Pay, up to 28 weeks.
I'm wondering how this works in practice, as the 20 weeks at full pay are essentially term time only, so by the time they are up I'll actually have been off for more than 28 weeks.
Does this mean I won't actually be entitled to any SSP?
Thank you in advance for any help or advice.
