[QUOTE="Nessinoo, post: 225993, member: 38497"] I wonder if you could help me? I was off work at the beginning of the year due to stress, which had a knock on effect on my diabetes making my blood sugars run higher than normal. I was off for approximately 4 months, and went back to work hoping the situation would change and the stress would diminish. I had a meeting with HR who then had a meeting with the manager involved. On my return I had a 1:1 meeting with my manager who said that due to my absence I was put on what I'll call a 'watch' list. Basically any more sickness absence and I'll start getting written warnings etc. The stress situation hasn't been resolved at all and has in-fact got worse, again causing high blood sugars, and causing me to have an infection that has taken 2 x antibiotics and 2 weeks to clear. I would love to change jobs as I really do not enjoy where I am working (I have worked for the company for 6 1/2 years, but only in this department for just over a year). I struggle with my blood sugars as it is, which causes me frustration, tiredness and low mood without the added stresses from work. Can anyone inform me where I stand legally? Any info would be much appreciated. [/QUOTE]
