If I choose to stay away from work because a family member is on the vulnerable list I don't get paid. Is this currently correct?

I had a cyst 2 weeks ago, and the DOM is refusing to let me back, due to this virus?... and I'm only on SSP due to having time off previously for a bad knee (required physio etc) struggle financially, and tbh it's unreal.

OH taking ages, union guy off sick with a chest infection... there is zero support =-/

I think that is correct yes. But if a family member is showing symptoms of the virus, you have to self isolate for 14 days and you would get full pay.

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.
