Fit notes (previously known as sick notes)
By law medical evidence is not required for the first 7 days of sickness. Fit notes will not be given for absenses of less than 7 days.
After 7 days it is for your employer to determine what evidence they require if any, from you. This does not always need to be a fit note from a GP. You are legally entitled to return to work before a fit not ends without any documentation from the doctor.
If you are advised to self isolate by NHS 111 or a Clinician you can do this yourself at https://111.nhs.uk/isolation-note/
Our doctors, nurses and staff look forward to helping you and your family.
