SSP and Holidays

A question about : SSP and Holidays

I'm wondering if any of you could help me?

I've been off work for a week due to a personal situation and have put a Self-Certificate Sick Note in at work.

This week I'm on holiday.

Going to the Doctors after my holiday to get a proper Sick Note.

What are my rights regarding holiday pay for this week? - will I get any, or will it be Sick Pay again?

Best answers:

• If you have been sick throughout the period and provide medical evidence to prove this, your employer should treat you as sick and pay you sick pay. If you don't get a sick note, they presumably would have to treat you as on holiday and pay holiday pay.
  I take it you would prefer the holiday pay, as, if you claimed SSP, you could keep your weeks holiday for another time.
• thank you!!!!!
