When you return from being off sick your Line Manager is supposed to submit this information online (Unfortunately I cannot remember the Form Number). It is not unknown for the system to fail to register this at the HR end.

Ask your Lino to a) ring up and confirm the date you returned to work and b) resend the form as well, so it is on the system, otherwise you may find in a few weeks time that it will happen again (as happened to me)

Did you and your manager fill in return to work forms?

I returned last week after being off for a month and did as above
