Hi everyone,
i have been T1 for 17 years and also suffer form other complications from diabetes, like autonomic nervous system issue and all the usual stuff. i recently suffered a twisted ankle, or so i thought, which in fact turned out to be broken in two places and has triggered chacot foot.
I have initially been signed of work for 6 weeks and have been told it could a lot longer, i did attempt to go to work but was sent home as health & safety risk.
After a week, work have offered for me to work from home, which i do not mind, they have to sort a new temporary contract, however question is where do i stand with the doctors certificate? work pay full wage for 6 weeks then 6 weeks on half pay then nothing, on the new contract i will only be paid for the agreed hours that i do.
due to financial commitments i have already enquired into releasing part of my pension, however I'm only 41 so don't really want to do this just yet.
work have also already sourced a temporary replacement for my position.
any advice would be greatly appreciated,
thank you,
