comments please on this letter that was pushed through my door today. i have just had a big operation and i will be off work and on crutches for a while.

it all seems very clever in the way it is written, but i think comes close to B & h

RM knew about this absence period for the last month as the hospital admission was planned

Word on the Scotland grapevine is that management will now be focussing their attention on the management of sick absence accidents.

When you say he'll do nothing - there will probably be a small cocktail party at which the various subjects will be laughed off as mere grievances and when the seats on RM Board becomes available.............................well they'll be pulling together. :cuppa

I was informed by my DOM, that as we are now using the new PSP thingy, when a OPG goes sick, a letter is produced by the PSP system. I've not seen a sample, but I can beleive that yours would fit the bill.

I thought it was PSP, the new system that comes with your new pay number, allows DOMS to do more using the PC rather than having to get in touch with HR etc. Sure I saw something in the Union room ... but then again I might have the wrong initials for it though :)
