If you have been absent due to sickness for 7 calendar days or less (including weekends), you do not need a medical certificate from the doctor. You can complete a statement of sickness online.
This means you can tell your employer you are not well enough to work and do not need to provide any further medical evidence.
This is called ‘self-certifying’. You should still be paid the amount of sick pay that’s in your contract.
The practice is entitled to charge for a private medical certificate when the illness has lasted less than 7 days. The cost of this is £20.
Please select one of the following options:
I'd like to complete an online self certificate
I still want a medical certificate from the GP

The Doctor’s note is referred to as a Fit Note. Your GP is entitled to charge you for a Fit Note when the illness has been for 7 days or less. Our fee for this service is £20.
It is not always necessary to visit your Doctor in order to receive a Fit Note.
