Hi all,
Has anyone provided any advice to schools on taking out insurance to
cover itself against the unforeseeable absence of its staff when sick
for long periods of time.
If so, how have you dealt with the situation where the insurance
company requires the school to provide sickness details/ medical
certificate on their staff member. What do you do if the staff
refuses to provide this information. Are there any legislation which
covers collecting this information.
Under the 1998 Act sickness details can not to be processed unless
certain conditions of schedule 3 are meet by the school. For example
explicit consent of the staff on sick.
I would appreciate any advice you can give me.
Regards,
Jody
