Have been off work - this is my 3rd week.
Tackled a lady - in a very non aggressive way about her racism - so her and another lady put in complaints about me - totally unfounded ones and ones that I have refuted.
I left work after telling my boss that I could not work in that atmosphere and have been on paid leave since.
I had to have a meeting with section leader and decided to make an official complaint about victimisation.
Have since not really heard anything - nothing about whether racism issue been followed up (lady admitted her language in writing but sees nothing wrong with it), have been offered a meeting with HR next week but have hospital appointment and can't do that day - have not been given another date yet.
Tomorrow I have to see Occupational Health though.
What will they want to know.
I feel that I am suffering from anxiety. I cannot concentrate, I feel like I cannot take big enough breaths, I don't sleep, even thinking about work makes me cry, the thought of having to go to meetings about the issue is sending me half crazy. And on top of this I am 20 weeks pregnant.
I am not sure they are pursuing the racism issue either. Am I within my rights to ask about that and if they are not to make an official complaint?
I feel very strongly that I did the right thing by addressing the racism but feel like I am the one feeling unsupported and isolated.
