Doh! I don't understand

Post by Stormproof »

DOM has requested everyone who is working under ATOS advice to be re-referred because he does'nt understand 'medical talk' and wants everything in plain English.(so perhaps they've not all got a degree in medicine :left: ) So today LM re-referred 7 of us. No doubt the DOM is going to continue re-referring everyone until the reports say what he wants them to say.
I'd just like to add that DOM's do not have to take any notice of ATOS reports, its just for advice and the sentence 'operational reasons' seems to overide any medical opinion. :roll:
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

They are doing this in my office as well as the fact that more than half of the indoor staff are able bodied and they want them to go out doing Park and Loopy when it kicks in next month. :Boo hoo!
Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.

ATOS have asked that I'm rereferred in 4-6 weeks and by then I'll have either seen the Neurologist or at least know when the appt will be.

My DOM has come up with a pretty reasonable rehab plan to be fair to her though. I just can't start it yet.
