Hi
I am wondering if any one can answer a question regarding sick pay and pregnancy, i have been employed in full time employment with my company for the last 21 months, i am 7.5 months pregnant and have had 4 days off due to pregnancy related illness, my boss now wants to stop my Sick pay and replace it with SSP. i travel a hour and 20 mins to get to work and between a hour 20 to 1 hour 50 mins to get home on top of a 9 hour day. The resulting 12 hour day are physically and emotionally draning me and also the targets i have set (i am in a sales role) seem unachivable. Is my employer able to stop my sick pay? as im sure with the amount of travelling, stress and the pregnancy progressing, i will wnd up having to have more time off? where do i stand?
