[QUOTE="Fencer, post: 226054, member: 31705"] The fact that you have worked there for a long time gives you a lot of ground legally. They cannot start giving you warnings for genuine illness, so as long as you have all the relevant documentation from your doctor, then you would win any argument easily. I think the best thing would be to talk to them though. Not the idiot that you had the one to one with, as they clearly don't care. Is there someone else at work more senior that you can talk to? HR department should be a good starting point. If applicable, Union Rep as mentioned below is not a bad idea (if applicable in your workplace), but I always think that it's better to give the company a chance to do the right thing first of all. Failing that there is the CAB available to offer free and impartial advice. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
