(This note is not part of the Regulations)
These Regulations amend the Statutory Sick Pay (General) Regulations 1982.
Section 3 of the Social Security and Housing Benefits Act 1982, as amended by the Social Security Act 1986, section 86, Schedule 10, paragraph 77, prevents a woman entitled to either statutory maternity pay or a maternity allowance from also receiving statutory sick pay. Regulation 2 makes further provision preventing a woman who is not entitled to either benefit from receiving statutory sick pay for a period of 18 weeks at the time of confinement.
Regulation 3 makes minor changes to the provisions governing statements required to be completed by employers in connection with payments of statutory sick pay.
Regulation 4 provides that for the purposes of statutory sick pay the expression “earnings” includes payments of statutory maternity pay. It also revokes a provision which is now otiose.
1982 c. 24; section 3(4A)(b) was inserted by section 18(5) of the Social Security Act 1985 (c. 53). Section 26(1) is cited because of the meaning ascribed to the word “prescribed” and section 47 because of the meaning ascribed to the word “regulations”.
See section 10(2)(b) of the Social Security Act 1980 (c. 30).
