hi everyone I'm new and really desperate for some advice please.
im 17 weeks pregnant with my second baby, from the start I have suffered from severe morning sickness and have been in and out of hospital, around the beginning of March I was diagnosed with hyperemisis grevardrum and was signed off from work for 4 weeks.
In this time it was split between 2 sick notes... First one dated 6th of March to the 20th of March... Second one dated 19th of March to the 3rd of April. Both my partner and my mother took both sick notes into my employer as I was to ill to do so myself. They were handed in as soon as I received them from my GP
i returned to work as planned, on my first day back was summoned into the office I thought to do my return to work form which it was but also for a formal investigation as to why I never showed up to work and failed to notify them of my absence. I explained I had sick notes covering me for this period etc. they noted this down and continued that I failed to keep in contact with them enough when I did.
its now been taken to disaplinary I have a union rep involved that is coming with me to my hearing next week but I'm so nervous.... I contacted HR who were meant to phone me back Friday as I questioned them about this as my sick notes which are on my file cover me for this whole time... But no one called me back! I'm treated like absolute crap by them and I feel physically sick with it all
During my my first pregnancy I was bullied so severely by the store manager that I was signed off work from 20 weeks till end of pregnancy with depression, I only returned there because she had left but now I feel it's starting all over again. I feel so down and having trouble sleeping with the worry of this :tinysmile_cry_t:.
ive also contacted asolicotor that agrees this is wrong and has agreed to take it on on a no win no fee basis if I am dismissed by them.
ive also this evening read I can take them to a tribunal for injury to feeling I have no idea how to go about this the costs etc would I get any assistance if on a low income! Would it even be worthwhile ?
Thank you in advance
