[QUOTE="Jbicheno, post: 2352606, member: 278204"] Earlier in the pandemic, October, I was suffering from anxiety and stress to the point I was crying when going to work often. I took some time off and asked my doctor to sign me off while an occupational health assessment was done. My head had refused to allow me to wear an FFP2 face mask, provided by me, in class (government guidelines). My request was declined by the first doctor but another did sign me off very reluctantly. OH recommended a new risk assessment, included a request that I be allowed to wear a mask. That new risk assessment has never been done. I wore my mask anyway at all times. I worked up until the Christmas holidays. Now, I feel the school situation with the new virus and crowding etc is just too unsafe and do not want to put my life/ health in danger. My head has asked me to come in for a meeting with her on Monday before accepting my resignation. However, unless she can offer a non-classroom post in an uncrowded room, allow me to work from home or take a career break I can’t see me returning to school. Very sad. [/QUOTE]
