After you add or accept a sickness, Access Payroll assesses the data to ensure you are paying your employees correctly in line with HMRC guidance. Using the employee's previous sicknesses and their average nicable pay, Access Payroll will assign a status to the sickness.

Not SSP
📌Note: A sickness that is linked to a previous sickness will use the same average nicable pay as the original. If the original sickness was disallowed, the linked one will also be.
