ILL HEALTH WITH LUMPSUM

Post by Broken Knee »

Fell last march busted my knee needed op and further injections in july, in the near future i will need a new knee meanwhile anyday now i will be given the papers to sign for ill health with lump sum, 34 + years in the job, what i want to know is this talk about likely to be considered a disability because it has lasted longer than 12 months,do royal mail pay something out or is it just for trying to claim from DWP?
