Re: Social Welfare payment going to employer???
Yes, I am on sick leave. Went on half pay after 6 months from employer. Was being paid all the time from employer, full pay for 6 months / half pay for 6 months/ pension rate of pay in a few weeks. Was told that once I went on half pay my (illness benefit as it is now called) would come to me. Now I believe it will come to me while on pension rate of pay. Will probably have to visit a social welfare officer to find this out.... Any other info. would be appreciated. I would love to be getting back all my benefit for the last 6 months though as I can't survive on what I am getting.
Regards,
Lyonsie.
