Legislation
Statutory Sick Pay (SSP) Rate 2024-25
Date
Effective 6 April 2024
Summary
SSP 2024-25
The same weekly SSP rate applies to all employees. However, the amount you must actually pay an employee for each day they’re off work due to illness (the daily rate) depends on the number of ‘qualifying days’ they work each week.
These rates apply from 6 April 2024.
