Delay Occupational Health

I have started a new job for a month now and my manager keeps saying OH will contact to discuss my what they can offer me for my disability. I am now been put on observation on calls, but not doing my full work. keeps saying Monday to be then follows, now month has passed. I don't know what to do, I made a verbal complaint to my manager, she is being great chasing OH. Covid is the excuse, shouldn't take a month to support a new employee. Can anyone give me advise please, what to do? is it ok to leave the job, compensation I can claim from the company for the delay? Anything really appreciate it.

Sorry to hear you are having trouble getting the adjustments you need at work, did you broach the subject with your new employer before you started the job?
If you think the job is something you will enjoy going forward, I wouldn't suggest quitting, it can be a stressful and often challenging process to get any adaptations in place but it will be more than worth it I'm sure.

I did they promised since day 1 and feels like its empty promise. I complaint they can only apologise. Is it worth staying, with a company like that? I was wondering, if I get any kind of compensation or anything, I don't want to go without a fight, tommrow it could be someone else in a similar situ like me.
I'll tag the other person see if they can help @samfits99
As a HR Manager for many years it can take a while to get OH to do the assessment especially if your company use an outsourced service and that us without the problems of covid.
You really need to give them more time and leaving would not be a good idea as you will find it difficult to get another job, and to me they sound like a reasonable employer
You could contact the agency and ask them if they can supply what you need but as suggested if you can purchase them yourself then I would do so and try claim the money back.
If this is the only thing you require to do the job then it is advisable ti get your own as they then would be yours to take to other emloyers
Surely you can buy this yourself rather than finding another job. If it was something that cost so much more then i could completely understand but it's not a fortune and at least it will allow you to do your job, for now at least.
