i think you will find that weekends are included in the 7 dyas self cet i am a manager in the nhs and we count weekends and also my wife works for a solicitors and on the odd occassion she has been off 7 days includes weekends even though both she and i are not contratced to work weekends unless it is paid overtime which we do not do. so there fore absemt friday and monday you are absen 4 days we have been told by our hr dept if we are fit to work on a saturday even though my dept is not contratced to work saturday we have to call in friday and say we are fit to work on the saturday then the sickness period finsihes on the friday...
