I have just been notified (10/9) that I must return to my office on 1st October after working successfully from home for the past 18 months. I tried to raise my concerns regarding this to my manager and line manager and it fell on deaf ears and was told to put it in writing however that only gives me 2 weeks to write it, send it and hopefully be reviewed before 1st October. I feel this sudden request has put a huge strain on my mental health and obviously concerned about my overall health in returning to a busy office that no longer follows covid recommendations like social distancing etc. Since being at home I have not been ill with any common ailments like colds, upset stomachs etc unlike before when colds and viruses frequently spread around the office causing me to have to take time off work to recover. I also contacted my HR who said to speak to my line manager so no help there either.
I wondered if anyone else has had to deal with this situation and if so any recommendations on what I can say to my employer that might be heard.
