Reply To: Supposed to be shielding – sick pay or furlough?

An update: just announced, the Govt has officially extended Statutory Sick Pay for all those who have been advised by letter from the Govt to shield for 12 weeks:

So, Jules, you can now at least get SSP for the full 12 weeks! Hope this helps 🙂
