SICKNESS OR INJURY. 10.1 Absence due to sickness or injury for a period of 5 days or less must be notified to the Employee’s line manager as soon as practicable and in any event prior to 10am on the first working day of absence together with an explanation for the absence and an estimate of the period of absence envisaged. Any change in the estimated period of absence must be notified as soon as the Employee becomes aware of that change. The Employee may be required to complete and sign a self-certification form relating to such absence and the reasons for it upon return to work. 10.2 In the event of the Employee being absent for more than 5 days, medical evidence must be produced in the form of a statement of reasons for absence completed by a qualified medical practitioner and sent to the Line Manager. 10.3 If the Employee is absent on account of illness or injury, subject to clause 10.4, the Employee will be entitled to normal basic rate of pay less any social security benefits recoverable (whether or not recovered) for up to 12 weeks in any period of 52 consecutive weeks (“Company Sick Pay”).

SICKNESS OR INJURY a. In the event of sickness or injury, you must comply with the Company’s sickness absence policy as amended from time to time, details of which are available from your line manager. If you are absent from work due to sickness or injury you must: (a) report the absence to the Company and ▇▇▇▇ as soon as possible, and in any event by 10am on the first morning of your absence; (b) notify your line manager of the reason for your absence and the likely duration and keep them updated; (c) contact the Company and ▇▇▇▇ on a regular agreed basis if your absence is for more than two consecutive days and advise of the expected duration of absence; and (d) complete as soon as possible a self-certification form and forward it to your line manager. b. If you are absent from work due to sickness or injury for more than seven days (including non-working days), you shall as soon as is reasonably practicable thereafter send to the Company and to ▇▇▇▇ a statement of your incapacity signed by an independent registered medical practitioner, and shall send such further statements at such intervals as the Company may reasonably require (which shall not be more than once weekly) to cover the full period of absence. On each occasion that a medical practitioner’s certificate expires and you do not anticipate returning to work, you must notify the Company and ▇▇▇▇ as soon as practicable. c. If you are absent due to illness, injury, or other disability, you will be entitled to receive 10 days Occupational Sick Pay (OSP), provided the sickness notification and reporting procedure has been followed. The amount of OSP you are entitled to will be calculated at the beginning of each absence period. As part of the calculation, any OSP paid during the previous ‘rolling’ 12 months will be subtracted from the entitlement. For the purposes of the OSP scheme, ‘normal pay’ is the pay which would be earned during a period of normal working. d. After your OSP entitlement is exhausted, then provided you have complied with all relevant requirements as set out in this Clause 14 and the Company’s sickness absence policy you will be entitled to receive statutory sick pay (“SSP”) provided that you satisfy the relevant requirements. For SSP purposes, your qualifying days shall be your normal working days, which shall be Monday to Friday. e. If you are absent from work due to illness or injury caused by the fault of a third party from whom you recover compensation in respect of lost earnings, you will re...

The Employee shall authorise the doctor to disclose the results of such examination to the Company. 14.4. If the Incapacity is or appears to be occasioned by actionable negligence, nuisance or breach of any statutory duty on the part of a third party in respect of which damages are or may be recoverable, the Employee shall immediately notify the Company of that fact and of any claim, compromise, settlement or judgment made or awarded in connection with it and all relevant particulars that the Company may reasonably require.
