Anyone else been sent to OH after being off sick if so what was the outcome?

[gratefull]

Gone back to work after being off with a chest infection plus chickenpox. Tried telling the boss about what i suffer from even given him leaflets but he does not seem to understand,his reply was can you not get med's to cure it. I have read different bits of info but is there a chance they can get rid of me on medical grounds? I only work part time well that's what it can start out as but my hrs can expand due to what needs to be done. Any input would be of help and support .My condition was diagnosed back in 2008 after taking a kick from a pupil which in turn caused a blood clot. No i did not claim felt to ill for that. Thanks for reading this.

Hi,,

I have been sent to OH about 5 times as I'm a primary teacher. I had planned to return but after complication from a hysterectomy and APS and some mobility issues. I have finally after a long process and many meeting being be dismissed under I'll health capability. I cannot return to that place of work due to risk assessment and also not well enough. I also handed a leaflet to my head. It was all taken on board. I can't really fault the school as they have been fair. I'm happy to give advice of what happened in the OH meeting. My OH consultant was fair and clear.

I hope you feel better soon. If you want any advice let me know.

Are either of you members of a trades union? If you are, please please get them involved. That's what they are there for, supporting their members at times like these.

I was in the same position 10 years ago and my union helped me to arrange early retirement

Can i say many thanks to everyone who answered my question any input helps...i think that other things need to be thought through by my work place as i do attend work when having difficulty in with my joints normally i splint them just to try and keep going...but when you cannot breath properly and are coughing i draw the line and give in. kind regards to all.

I was in a similar position as I ended up in hospital in Cyprus with clots and then wasn't allowed to fly home for some time. I used this site where there is some excellent information and has a frank discussion with my boss. In the end they backed off from taking any action.
