Morrisons confirms sick pay cut for unvaccinated staff
Image source, AFP.Supermarket Morrisons has confirmed it has cut sick pay for unvaccinated workers who are forced to isolate after being exposed to Covid. Unjabbed Morrisons workers who are told to isolate but test negative now get statutory sick pay of £96.35 a week. Under Morrisons' policy, if NHS Test and Trace informs an unvaccinated worker that they have been exposed to Covid-19, they will only get statutory sick pay - the legal minimum - when they isolate. Sick pay cuts will also be implemented at Wessex Water and in the US, several major companies have started penalising unjabbed workers. Statutory sick pay is the minimum amount employers must pay, but some employers offer more than SSP - this is normally known as company or contractual sick pay.
