It can depend on how long you have worked for the company and what type on contract you have with them. The department for work and pensions website gives you the rues that apply to sick pay.

it far from straight forward. You may also be able to claim benefits for the time you are unable to work - if SSP is not payable.

adviceguide.org.uk/wales/be... gives you the quick guide to claiming ESA while off sick.
