Self Certification Sick/Fit Note for less than 7 days

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. This would require a private letter from the GP, which would incur a fee that is payable prior tot he letetr being completed. The GP can only provide a letter once you have been consulted. You can request a GP appointment here - https://florey.accurx.com/p/E82117

 

Doctor’s Sick/Fit Note for more than 7 days

If you have been ill for more than 7 days you will need a doctor’s certificate. These certificates are called ‘Fitness to Work’ Certificates.

If you have not spoken to or been seen by a GP, it is likely you will need an appointment to discuss your illness before a fitness to work certificate can be issued. You can submit a medical request here - https://florey.accurx.com/p/E82117
