If its not past the six month cut-off period he is talking bollocks! (In my opinion, get it checked out first)

Tell him that managements own guidance on the payment of sick pay mean that you cannot under any circumstances ignore the instructions of your doctor....that should make him scratch his head a bit.

Conditions on which Sick Pay is Paid

Entitlement to sick pay is always subject to strict observance of the following conditions:

(a) Certificates of incapacity must be received by the business for all sick absences

(b) The business must be satisfied that an employee's absence is necessary and due to genuine illness.(c) The business reserves the right to refuse sick pay if an absence is due to, or is aggravated by, causes within the employee's control, or if the employee has neglected instructions given by a Doctor.

(d) An absent employee shall remain at their normal home address (other than to receive in-patient treatment) unless they have consent of their line or local personnel manager. Employees who are sick immediately before they are due to go on holiday must confirm to their Line Manager that they are going on holiday on the due date (unless sick absence continues and the employee remains at home). We also have to ensure that we are taking the appropriate steps to ensure we are providing the relevant support to our employees by using our health care professionals, Atos Origin. By maintaining this contact we can also look at alternatives. i.e. alternative indoor duties.

In the cases where this process is not followed for no known reason, Managers could take steps to hold an employees pay and change their absence from Sick absence to Unauthorised absence.

What has made you think that RM are a caring employer ??

Yes , they ask you to weigh your bags, wear you high viz, wear your helmets before you go out. But do they enforce it. Of course they don't. The Management just go through the motions to cover their ass.

They don't give a feck what you do as long as the mail goes out the door. Only time they will check what you doing or what you are wearing is if you have an accident.

Some people on here need to grow up and open their eyes.

God help us all !!!!

Give them some credit, they do the odd check to conduct you as well!
