[QUOTE="Paul-H, post: 2251352, member: 522032"] Well, events have changed and I may not be returning to work. My wife has severe COPD, has been identified as highly vulnerable and is therefore isolating for 12 weeks and we're having to observe the 'shielding' guidelines. At home are myself, my wife, my daughter who's 24 and her fiance who's 26. My daughter is studying for her Masters degree and her uni (Coventry) shut down pretty quickly so she's at home 24/7 anyway. Her fiance works in the banking sector and works from home so he's also home 24/7 and my wife doesn't work. My boss initially said that after the 14 day isolation period I need to return to work. However, I called NHS 111 to question if that was right and was told emphatically no. We must *all* isolate for 12 weeks and only go out for essentials like shopping and thats it. My GP was really helpful and just referred me to the NHS website. So, we're now self isolating until June or we're told otherwise. My wifes health comes before any job. My boss isn't happy but I told her we can discuss it when I return to work. [/QUOTE]
