I am entitled to 6 months full pay on sick and 6 months half pay.
I’m really distracted at work lately due to anxiety and I have been trying to push through it but it seems working harder and forcing myself to is actually making me worry more about different things. I know my performance has slipped. Nobody has formally said anything to me about it.
If I have any time off work soon it’ll fall into the qualifying period where my maternity pay is decided. I would probably have a couple of weeks off to start and then longer if I need it. I see no point in being a martyr and want to be a bit more resilient emotionally at this time, so would be helpful to focus on that. Would I still get my normal occupational maternity pay on maternity leave, even if I was off sick in this time?
Thanks for any advice.
