I have been on sick leave for 6 days after aod, and have already been called into the sorting office for management consultation twice. Both times they could easily have asked the questions on the phone. I am supposed to be resting the injuries.
Any thoughts or advice out there?

Re: usual behaviour after aod?
You are not under any obligation to attend these meetings.
Your only obligation is to maintain reasonable contact with your manager.

I would therefore be grateful if you could provide the procedure management are required to follow in respect of the following:
1. Keeping in contact with employee
2. Management interview requests and established guidelines for these interviews;
In response to points one and two of your request, Royal Mail Group has a contact strategy with employees who are absent due to illness.
On the first day of absence the employee must contact the manager. A discussion should take place regarding the absence and what support can be offered to the employee.
If the absence is likely to be more than one day an agreement should be made regarding the amount and nature of the contact during the first week of absence.
If the absence continues for more than seven days regular contact should be maintained between the employee and manager.
If the employee is absent for longer than two weeks, the manager and employee have the opportunity to request a meeting. The purpose of this meeting would be to discuss the return to work plan, identify any ongoing issues or barriers to the return to work and options available to the employee.

Thank you Fishtank - good to know what 'should' be happening!
Think my DOM is taking advantage because he knows my usual rep is on holiday this week - but when he comes back I think we will be discussing the grievance procedure!
