I've been dismissed from work following a shoulder injury.

I'm epileptic and a Aquired brain Injury epilepsy man (albeit controlled).

I declared my health conditions at interview time and was hired anyway.

i'm on a zero hours contract.

Today after my sick note ran out i received this.

    Hey @GJT1 I'm so sorry to hear your employers let you go, but I'm glad to hear the shoulder is better now. I've had to remove the images from your post as we don't allow personal information to be shown, I hope you understand.

    Unfortunately with zero hours contracts, employers don't need to give any notice period and there's no protection against unfair dismissal, but if you wanted to speak to someone in the know with employment law, I'd recommend reaching out to ACAS.
