That's bloody awful, but the actions of Royal Mail management sank well below standards of decency a good while back.
Funnily enough, around the same time an awful lot of our colleagues decided to leave us, and join them.
It's the fat, useless, lazy, former postmen/drivers, that are the worst of the worst. w*****s the lot of 'em.

Pathetic.
If we do get privatised and you need an excuse to sell your shares quickly this is it.
With this breed of manager in charge I give the company two years max before we're calling in KPMG and emptying our lockers.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

Apologies then, although you were pretty ambiguous with your first post.

Unless you're saying there are a large number of former postmen/drivers who are fat,useless and lazy it's not a generalisation,it's a targeted specific.

adrianjames first of all, I have every sympathy for your particular circumstance, from what I understand Stage one is not automatically issued, consideration needs to be given for the nature of the illness before issue.
The main criteria of your condition is that its for life, are you taking any medication for it for life as well ? this will add weight, your condition should come under the Equality Act 2010, you not only can issue put in a grievance you can issue an ET1 against them, a tribunal with no vested interest other than to apply the employment law impartially will not look kindly on ignoring the Equality Act and Royal Mail would get very bad PR.

Avoid going to the media until you have concluded the case, as any media contact could negatively affect the outcome of the case.

Go to your Rep to get the ball rolling.
