Fit Note

BACK TO MAIN INDEX

You can now submit an electronic request for a sick note (also known as MED3, fit note).

Please fill out the form below if you have been off for more than 7 days and need a sick note.  These are for employers/job centre and are not required for school absences.

It is very unlikely that we will be able to do a sick line if we have not seen or spoken to you about your illness (or have correspondance from hospital).  If that is the case please call for an appointment to discuss your request.

Requests for sick notes will be checked daily Mon-Fri and should be available to collect 72 hrs later.  If we require more information or if the line cannot be done we will contact you.

Fit (Sick) Note

You do not need a sick note for the first 7 days of an illness - you can still self-certify your illness.

For isolating due to COVID-19 you can get an isolation note for up to 14 days here: 111.nhs.uk/isolation-note/

For information on taking sick leave see here: Taking sick leave - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)

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 may involve a charge. Many employers have their own self-certification forms. If your employer doesn’t have its own form your can complete the Employee's Statement of Sickness (SC2) form online. 

When you’ve filled in the form give it to your employer, it will help them decide if you can get SSP. Keep a copy for your own information.

E.g. could you work from home, do fewer hours, or do different tasks at work?
