Can I leave a 2 year contract early on medical grounds
I started work last year and signed a 2 year contract. The job is in a 24/7 CCTV monitored home for families at risk of losing their children. (I have seen babies taken from their parents, and heard of/seen horrific situations.
I live with RR MS, and the 3 shift rota (days/afters/nights) is causing Severe fatigue, and lost many nights sleep due to stress.
I have been on sick since September as the stress caused a major relapse, and many bouts of Optic Neuritus.
I don't feel I can physically or psychologically do the job, for both myself, and the families 😕
The business has a high staff turnover, and I have seen proof that ex employees, face substantial financial penalties. I'm scared to resign, as I can't afford to, but also can't afford to physically risk my health 😢
Can I leave in medical grounds?

Hello AKR
I have copied and posted the sections of my contract, which I think you will better understand than me.
Once again, many thanks for your assistance.
