I don't believe an accident at work will be counted against you as sick.

Bit different but my manager tried issuing me with a stage one after an accident at work 'dog bite' within my first year of service.

I got it thrown out due to my absence being a work related accident, he weren't happy ;-)

You need to get your rep involved quickly.
You need to make sure this accident is reported on ERICA and recorded as an accident on duty.
They will tell you that you can't fill in an accident report after 48 hrs.
This is bollocks,there is no time limit on reporting an accident.
good times, bad times you know I've had my share

I was. They even admitted that it was all their fault.

I think under the "new attendance procedure" that an AAW "may" be counted against, circumstances and all that taken into consideration :wave :wave
• Absences which result from accidents at work will normally be discounted when deciding whether the attendance standards have been reached or maintained. Such absences will still be discussed at the welcome back meeting
In exceptional circumstances the manager may review the accident on duty related absence and decide that the absence should be considered under the formal attendance process. Further details can be found in the How to Treat Absences Due to Accidents at Work Guide.

Perhaps to attract attention to an important point. A wave can mean hello as well as goodbye .
