[QUOTE="KK123, post: 2242228, member: 451727"] Hmmmm, well I would say they have pretty much all they need to make a decision, ie the Govt UK website which has ALL the advice on and also what employers should be doing, especially if an employee falls within the 'vulnerable' category (the very vulnerable are already being catered for). Do not let your work put an extra onus on you, they know you are type 1, they can read the govt advice and then they can make their decision. You actually don't need a letter which will only reiterate what's already out there. Force your employers to write down WHY they are not coming to a decision bearing in mind your work, make them record their rationale. IF after that they require more medical records they can ask your medical team! They seem to be ignoring THEIR responsibilities so tactfully point it out to them by sending them an email cutting & pasting the govt advice and state that you need this done now because you are at a heightened risk every hour you are there. I have just followed my own advice and hey presto, 'go home' was the reply. x [/QUOTE]
