If RM have followed the procedure to the letter it is very hard to convince an ET otherwise .

I think you missed my point. RM have lost quick a few cases regarding their sickness procedures.

How can atos healthcare give an accurate report when they don't see the person in question , I've taken my own gp sick notes in and they seem to have been discarded over atos who have never seen me but have had a telephone conversation with them , r they neutral or do they work for rm . Because surely they will be more biased towards rm

Of course they have lost many ETs due to bad Management and bad practises . But if they have followed the Procudure correctly it is very hard .

The ET is independant unlike RM, even if RM follow their own sick procedures it does not automatically mean that an ET panel will not award against them.

Some RM staff on here have said ATOS have been fine with them, but alot have said they have not.

I'm printing off copies of this for my GP and Consultant. All the GPs at my surgery have a very low opinion of RM management, probably why they keep telling me to find another job.
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Which isn't easy, when you've got long term health issues. Unless of course you're covered by the Equalities Act (replacement for the DDA), and even then, they sometimes try to get around that. :sad:

I showed a copy to the H&S Rep and asked him his thoughts, basically told me 'so what' and spoke to me like I was an idiot.
