If an employee keeps the illness benefit welfare payments but doesn't receive their wages from your company, you shouldn't save any timesheets during the periods of their sick leave.

This is because your company isn't making any payment to the employee.

To ensure that you don't save any timesheets in error for this employee, you can suspend the employee from your payroll. Alternatively, you can click Ignore on the timesheet.

If you suspend an employee, when they return back to work, you can reinstate them and record their normal wages. Don't record the illness benefit payments they receive in Sage Payroll.
