During Covid 19 staff I worked a great deal from home being compelled to due to the situation. In that time my physical health became poor - I have an orthotic appliance.
Working in isolation harmed my mental health-meetings on MS Teams was not the same as working in my office with others.
Since December 2021 I have not been allowed to go into my office because the internal lift has been condemned. My mental health worsened and I was given a fit note for 4 weeks. This is the second spell of sickness in a 12 month period.
I am now to be subjected to a Health Absence Improvement Meeting which causes me more stress. The letter informs me that one outcome could be dismissal.
This is a travesty as the (Removed name of employer) , my manager has prevented me from working in the office, suggested unworkable solutions and seems oblivious to anything other than treating me as part of a process.
(Removed name of employer) has e-reading about mental health and thinks this is all they need to provide to promote good mental health. Sadly it feels as if their care for staff is in words only; the reality is it does not.
I am angry about the way I am treated in what should be the foremost of good practice organizations.
