You can self-certify for the first 7 days you are off sick from work.
If you’ve been ill for more than 7 days and have taken sick leave, you can get a fit note (also known as a sick note) from your GP surgery or at a hospital to give to your employer.
If you’re registered with GP at Hand, book an appointment with one of our clinicians who can issue fit notes. If they think a fit note is needed, our Support Team will send it to you via text message or email. The message will contain a secure link for you to view or download your fit note. You will need the internet on your phone (or you can open the link on the computer).
