Hi, I’ve just received a help back to work interview. I’m on esa, sdp and pip as I suffer severe depression. I did do permitted work for 3 years 14 months ago. I’m just wondering can I ask for a phone interview or even ask to postpone it as I have diagnosed with kidney stones and severe kidney infection and am on strong painkillers for the next 10 days

    I'm sure you can ask @ej77, it might be helpful to ask for a phone interview or a postponement as a reasonable adjustment. 

    Citizens Advice explains that under the Equality Act 2010, places like the job centre have a duty to make reasonable adjustments for disabled people.

    I am sorry to hear about your kidney stones, they can be really nasty, so I hope you recover soon, and keep in touch with your GP :)
