Entirely depends what she's receiving; SSP, ICB or something from her employer.

Isn't the rule that you can be off sick , as long as the 'sickness' prevents you from doing your job?.

And thus broken leg working at a desk/call centre is a no no,

while a broken leg as say a taxi driver is ok sus it is something which prevents you from doing your job properly.

Yeah if she cant get to and from work to earn her money, how are they going to view it if she manages to get to france?

Got the feeling your mum doesnt commute 200 - 300 miles either way a day.

Just a thought but have you thunk about asking the people paying her while she is off sick?

Hey
She is a special needs teacher, so had to push the pupils wheel chair sometimes, so cant really do that, she has the cast off at the moment but the Dr has signed her off work for another 4 weeks, and its the College that are paying her at the moment.
She is going to give them a call and ask, just thought I'd ask the wise people of BCF

I went on holiday for a week while I was off work sick. I didn't bother telling my employers as they're arseholes and would have taken the stance that if I can go away then i'm fit to work.
One of my mates got a bollocking for emailing someone while he was off sick. His managers seemed to think that he should be tucked up in bed if he's sick, otherwise he obviously isn't sick.
Different firms have different rules, but if you have been signed off sick by a doctor then its his opinion that you are unfit for work, although his opinion is based upon the injury and your description of your job. Bit of a grey area really.
