[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1439914, member: 41816"] Assuming you are in the UK, have a look at this link. [URL]http://www.nhs.uk/chq/Pages/1062.aspx?CategoryID=68[/URL] It is pretty basic info, but there are some links at the bottom of the page which may take you to more indepth stuff, and there are some telephone numbers if you want to ring and have a chat to someone. I work from home myself, and find it a great improvement on slogging into the office on the daily grind. I am also lucky that my employer is extremely considerate and flexible. My work/life balance is the best it has been in 30+ years of employment. I start early and finish late, with breaks for dog-walking lunches, washing machine repairers and various other things. The nature of my work is that I get bursts of up and down time too, allowing me to control my own schedule. I have been surprised how well it works, and how productive I am, and my employer tells me they are very happy with the arrangement. There is one other added bonus too - I have managed to miss almost all of the plagues/viruses/lurgys that sweep through an open plan office on a regular basis. I hope your Charcot foot recovery goes well. It is a frustrating and inconvenient and horrible condition. You have my profound sympathy. [/QUOTE]
