If you have been ill for 7 days or less you don’t need to see a Doctor. You can complete a Self-Certification form yourself.
However some employers insist on a Doctor’s note regardless. A Doctors note under these circumstances involves a charge of £10.
Many employers have their own self-certification forms. If your employer doesn’t have its own form you can download the Self Certification Form. Please print it, fill it in and hand it in to your employer. You do not need to see a Doctor.
You must give your employer a doctor’s ‘fit note’ (sometimes called a ‘sick note’) if you have been ill for more than 7 days in a row and have taken sick leave. This includes non-working days, such as weekends and bank holidays.
You can do this by contacting the practice via phone on 0114 229 1686, please be advised that sick / fit note requests are not classed as an urgent requirement and are additional workload for the doctors at the practice, in most cases a sick / fit note will not be issued the same day it is requested.
In some cases for a sick / fit note to be issued you will require a telephone call with a doctor, these appointments can be booked a few weeks in the future. In these instances a sick / fit note can be back dated to cover the period it is / was required for.
