Union Attacks 'Inhumane' Sick Policies

[brothermagrew]

'Teachers telephoned at home while off sick and pressurised to send in work, surprise home visits by senior managers to check whether the teacher is genuinely ill, threats of disciplinary action if a teacher is seen out the house when off sick and return to work interviews in which interrogation techniques usually reserved for those suspected of mass murder are just a sample of the complaints we have received. In one school, if teachers were absent, their name and the details of their illness were posted on the noticeboard in the staff room like a wall of shame, stripping staff of any dignity or privacy.'

Do any of the CWU brothers and sisters recognise any familiarities with what NASUWT are having to put up with?

Again, it is illegal for employers to discuss your illness without prior consent--never mind putting them up on a wall,
for inspection by any body.!
