Enables you to record information about an employee that is used by the system when determining whether SSP can be paid for a period of sickness.

The information held in this screen is specific to individual employees: the general rules governing SSP are maintained using SSP Parameter Maintenance.

Dates

SSP1L Start, End Date, PIW Weeks

Display only. These fields are only populated if data was entered from the SSP1L form prior to the 28th October 2008. The start and end dates of the employee's last absence period before leaving their previous employer and the number of weeks absent.

Pattern

SSP Qualifying Days, SMTWTFS

Each letter represents a day of the week starting from Sunday through to Saturday. The defaulted values come from the Payroll Control Group to which this employee is attached, and can be overridden as necessary.

Under each day, enter Y if an employee is entitled to Statutory Sick Pay if they are sick on this day of the week, or enter N if they are not.

The details entered in this field are used as the default SSP qualifying days in SSP/OSP Qualifying Days when entering a sickness, and are used in the SSP calculation for the PIW.
