I work for a medium sized company with approx 60 employees.
I've been off sick due to my disability for a while but have now been declared fit to return to work on a phased return.
Spoke to my managing director. Initially he said he didn't want to be bothered with a phased return and I should stay off until I was properly fit. When I said I was happy to come back full time straight away if he wasn't happy with a phased return he then said, amongst other things, that that wouldn't be fair on the person who'd been covering for me and because of that I'd be sitting at work doing nothing.
I asked him outright if he actually wanted me to return and he went very quiet.
I know I've been off a long time (several months) but I love my job and kept reiterating how keen I was to come back.
Can he do this?
