Illness during short-time work

If you fall ill before the start of short-time work, you will receive continued payment of your wages to the amount of the short-time working allowance from the start of short-time work with short-time work 0. In the case of other reductions in working hours, for example short-time work 50%, you will receive continued payment of your wages after the start of short-time work to the amount of the short-time working allowance + 50% of your usual salary.

In the case of other reductions in working hours, for example short-time work 50%, you will receive continued payment of your wages after the start of short-time work to the amount of the short-time working allowance + 50% of your usual salary.

In both cases, you will receive sick pay from your health insurance company after six weeks of incapacity to work. The amount of sick pay depends on your usual income – not on the short-time working allowance.
