I am discussing this at the moment too. I am looking at going back to my old career with shift work. It just doesnt pay to be sick these days so I need to go back. I am hoping for jobshare which will hopefully make it easier. 🤞

Hi Fibrogirl41I hope going back to work goes OK.

I managed to change my hours so I worked alternate days,this gave me time to recover.

Check out reasonable adjustments.

Take care
