Do I need a sick note?

I suspect each work place will have it’s own policy and way forward relating to the coronavirus Best to contact your manager/HR and just ask if they need you to provide a sick note or fit note as they are now called. As a rule we can self certified for an illness for a week and then would need to provide a fit note from the GP. This is of course for standard illness and not specific to the coronavirus. Sorry I appreciate this is not that helpful. I would contact your manager and explain you have been advised to stay off work and just ask what they need.
Have I missed something? Are you ok?

i would get one so you are covered one way or the other. I have a fit note but it shows reduced hours no standing etc. So I am sure DOc will do ne for you.
