Hi everyone,
Sorry this is long but need some advice. I have been on sick leave since January with a pregnancy related problem (dreaded SPD strikes again). I am paying made SSP, and as things aren't improving I am still entitled until July to take SSP. I would prefer to do this as a few months may make all the difference to my pelvis. The boss sent me to Occupational Health even though I explained my doctor had told me this won't heal overnight (nice to know they trust me!!!), anyway OH (who was shocked that work had sent me) has now told them exactly the same thing, he either recommends I do part time and only do aspects of my job I can do, or I get signed off.
Boss wants me to go in for a meeting next week to discuss, but they want to speak to their solicitor first.
I just hope they are not going to try and push me out. I currently have a full time contract and it's pretty obvious this isn't going to heal overnight, am I entitled to carry on with SSP until my 6 months are up, then go back to work? If I do go back part time until it heals, will that mean I have to come out of my full time contract. I am worried if that happens, when I am able to return full time they may say I am not needed for a full time role anymore.
Sorry if this sounds confusing but I am a bit worried about all of this.
Any advice gratefully received.
