[QUOTE="DCUKMod, post: 1976703, member: 345386"] [USER=499223]@Listlad[/USER] - Whilst unpalatable to all parties, it is possible to lawfully manage an employee out of a company. It is not usually plausible to have members, particularly long term sick, retained ad infinitum just because they aren't well. Businesses must be able to continue to operate, and few employers these days have much slack in the amount of work needing to be done, versus number of employees. [USER=123183]@robotears[/USER] - As [USER=41816]@Brunneria[/USER] states, these excalating processes are very commonplace these days, and ensures fair playwith everyone being treated the same. Your employer is required to allow you time to attend medical appointments, provided reasonable notice is given to him, however he is not obliged to pay you for the time you have off, so making up the time is quite reasonable, and more palatable than the time being unpaid. Your employer will have a written sickness policy (often called something natty like Managing Absense). Ensure you have read and understood it carefully. [/QUOTE]
