if you get signed off your work for stress related illness due to royal mail r u still allowed to do another job if you have one.

I would have to say no, because if you are ok to do one job you should be ok to do this job too.

No, if you are signed off work you cannot do any work. Although you may still get full pay part of this will be made up by SSP paid through royal mail by the government.

With regards to stress:
Breach of duty of care - Health And Safety At Work Act (1974)
The bully's behaviour constitutes a breach of the employer's duty of care under the Health And Safety At Work Act 1974, whereby employers have a legal obligation to ensure both the physical and psychological wellbeing of their employees. The Act requires employers to provide both a safe place of work, and as far as is reasonably practical, a safe system of work. If, having brought a health and safety issue to the attention of the employer, the employer chooses not to take take action, they will be in breach of this Act. In high risk and high stress environments, the employer may be legally obliged to carry out a risk assessment.

Stress is not the employee's inability to cope with excessive demands but a consequence of the employer's failure to provide a safe system of work as required under this Act. Blaming the sufferer of stress for suffering stress is a deliberate attempt to divert attention from the cause of the stress and thus an admission of failure to fulfil this non-derogatable obligation of duty of care.

And I would agree with the other previous posters comments.
