Don’t forget to claim for coronavirus sick pay

If you have fewer than 250 employees and have paid sick pay for coronavirus related absence, don’t forget you may be able to claim a rebate.

You can claim if:

  • you have already paid your employee’s sick pay (use the SSP calculator to work out how much to pay)
  • you’re claiming for an employee who’s eligible for sick pay due to coronavirus
  • you have a PAYE payroll scheme that was created and started on or before 28 February 2020
  • you had fewer than 250 employees on 28 February 2020 across all your PAYE payroll schemes

Employees do not have to give you a doctor’s fit note for you to make a claim.
