go sick!

Royal Mail managers.....about as popular as a t.urd in a swimming pool!
The DDA/Equality Act demands action,NOT words......adjustments NOT Occupational Health referrals.Case No:2505901/09
Royal Mail is an Equal Opportunities Employer..It discriminates against everybody.

The reports sent by Atos are only a guide for the Dom's they do not have to abide by them(they would be stupid not to)if it says you should not perform a certain task and you are told to do it regardless, it would be a shame if you injured yourself doing it

They are coming to take us away

It's good to get these types of threads, the ridiculous my manager said bollox, so we can reassure ourselves that while the world is falling apart, Royal Mail managers are still being the low-life C***S they have always been.

The daily grind of having to argue your case with an intellectual pigmy of a line manager is physically and emotionally draining.

Re: what can you do if ?
Once they have the ATOS report they should have discussed with the employee and Rep to agree a duty structure.
If the DOM is asking them to do anything that is against the ATOS advice then the individual doesn't have to follow this instruction on the grounds of health and safety, he has a duty of care and as others have said to disregard ATOS would make him/her liable for any harm the employee suffers.
Also under the new attendance agreement your own doctors advice has to be considered and cannot simple be disregarded as before.

Some even are in self denial that such reports exist unless you show them your copy or quote from it.
They can have a rough time in a tribunal when such reports do surface
