In light of the easing of lockdown restrictions and the vaccine rollout, people will be beginning to see progress toward a transition to normalcy, albeit no doubt with a degree of apprehension and hesitation. With a return to normalcy, businesses will be keen to balance a potential increase in activity with a desire for its employees to take some well-earned holiday leave.

I recently received an instruction from an employer client who was concerned that a number of its employees were regularly ‘pulling sickies’ and that they did not know how to manage the situation. ‘Pulling a sickie’ is not a new issue for employers, perhaps best highlighted by the fact that 1st February of each year has been coined National Sickie Day. However, whilst it is not a new issue, it is an issue that must be handled with reasonable care and procedurally correctly.

Hallett & Co are pleased to announce that our Sophie Wakelin is now an Associate Solicitor of the firm.
