Am I going to get SACKED?

[POSTMAN]

Rule of thumb,if you break anything,get into work then go out on delivery for a while.

I've got a stage 3 looming in the next couple of weeks, when I had my stage 2 the DOM said the paper work from the stage 1 had been "lost" and he couldn't find it, I don't remember having a stage 1 done, I haven't had a back to work interview for the illness that triggered the stage 3 either, have RM followed the correct procedure, and could it get thrown out ?.

Note:
As far as I know stages are triggered automatically by HR from info supplied to them by local management.

HR 'should' have some kind of paperwork for the stage 1.
Make sure all the paperwork is in order,get your rep/area rep on the case.
If you did not have a stage 1 interview then you've got them by the bollox................if tho.

Also you should have a sick record print out every time you have the stage interview,that gives you when stages are triggered and when they are given.

Jumping into this thread, but I've just been told by my DOM that I've triggered a stage 3.

It was for one day off a couple of weeks ago.

Not sure of my sick record (but I don't have much time off) and don't remember getting a stage 2...

Also, no return to work was done after the day off I had.

Can they get rid of me without a return to work being done?

Sort of in a state here.

poor sods on here who have a damn good reason to be ill yet are looking at the sack always makes wonder, why pick on them. pick on the lazy ones who got a hangover after a few winegums. pick on the ones who dont do jacks... to help round the office. you know the ones, sure you got at least one in your office, thats the sort the managers gota weed out. not the honest ones who just either made a mistake or is trully ill. god, you be given the sack for being in hospital soon

Totally agree as would my lino and DOM but its a case of having to catch 'em at it!

Talk to your rep, get them to make sure RM have followed all their procedures.

HR ( i think) send the triggers to your managers but, if your manager never issued a stage 1 warning then you've never had a stage 1 because your manager f****d up.
Lateagainpostie, Insist upoon getting the paperwork from your stage 1, the copy with your signature on it.
Phone your area rep if you are dealing with a stage 3. you need them involved at this stage.

They'll try anything at the moment to get you sacked. I was off ill the other week for 2 days and my boss decided he would pay me a suprise visit at my house to check up on me. He has never done this to anyone ever at our office. He came round and put a note through the letterbox saying he called round but I wasn't in. A member of my family was stood next to the door when the note came through, I was in my bedroom. He never even knocked!! He then reported me to the managers at the main office to deal with me. I know where I stand with him and this company now!!

If u work more than an hour then go home it goes Down as a part absence which doesn't contribute to stages, unless a pattern arises. Ie. If u seem to go home on Monday's a lot etc... However with everything in RM a pattern is wot they deem to be. And this could be two in a year. However your first one is ok
