You could always try a zero hour contract as in this thread www.cleanitup.co.uk/smf/index.php?topic=58438.new;topicseen#new
that may work for you.

i saw a program on tv where a couple of business owners had stopped paying sick pay (apparently you are not obliged) the moment they stopped the sick pay the attendance records went through the roof!!

if/when i employ i wont be offering sick pay, IMO too many people take the p**s out of their employers when they have a sniffle or its cold and wet out!

call me a slave driver but no work , no money would be my policy
