After you add or accept a sickness, SelectPay assess 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, SelectPay will assign the sickness a status.
SSP allowed
SSP disallowed
Not SSP
SSP disallowed
The sickness would be applicable, but the employee is unable to be paid it. To see the reason why, follow the steps below.
Click Employees, and then click Run Payroll.
Find and select the required employee.
In Amend Pay, click the Sickness tab.
Click the dropdown, SSP not payable.
šNote: If a sickness is linked to a previous sickness, it will use the average nicable pay calculation from the original sickness.
The disallowed reason will have a selected checkbox next to it.
Not SSP
šNote: A display issue is present, which is causing sicknesses under 3 days in length to appear as Not SSP, but will still pay the correct SSP figure in Run Payroll.
The sickness entered can't qualify for SSP.
