You can sack someone on ssp. They can't take your money forever!

No one is implying that you can't 'sack' someone on SSP, both the employer and employee has rights and  there will be situations where termination of employment is justifiable, but you said in a previous post that you can sack someone who was on SSP for any reason due to the fact they had been employed for less than two years, this isn't the case.

De facto it is the case. At one time any aggrieved ex employee could take his former employer to a tribunal, or start the process in the hope of a settlement. These days they have to pay the court fee, which is quite a lot so don't tend to bother.

The employee has lots of rights, but there is no longer a free court system.

That's where we miss the trade unions they covered the court fees, that said I think the no win no fee guys have started to take these type of cases on.

Remember paying an employee up to 28 weeks SSP is a legal requirement no different to paying tax, when this guy turns
up at the dole to sign on the sick there's bound to be issues.
