How do I claim Sick Pay if I am working on a Direct Engagement agreement?

To claim Statutory Sick Pay (SSP), please complete the SSP form on the gov.uk website and send it back to NHSP with evidence or proof of your sickness.

Evidence/proof of your sickness can be:

• A ‘fit note’ or sick note
• A letter confirming the date of your procedure (for instance, if you’ve been advised to self-isolate before going into hospital for surgery)

Please send your form and evidence to:

• ahp&hcs@nhsprofessionals.nhs.uk if you are an Allied Health Professional, Health Care Scientist or Social Worker
• doctorsplacement@nhsprofessionals.nhs.uk if you are a Doctor.

Forms are usually processed within 5 working days.
