Dh has been off work for 4 weeks now since being told he has leukemia, as have i.
Now he rang his HR department and they told him he will get 3 months full pay, and after that will be up to managers decision. He is hoping to get back to work at the end of the month all going well. He rang his boss and explained he would be returning but would need a stagger start. So starting with just mornings, then going till 3pm and finally till 5pm. HIs boss has now said this is going to be difficult. He has asked DH to look into what benifits we would get if he is paid ssp!! and also compained that he doesnt want the rest of the team to be worried about approaching DH if they have a cold and such and should he maybe wear a mask at work!
Im very confused as it was HR that suggested staggered start. The chemo makes him tired and of course has to aviod infections, but simple things like washing hands, not coughing over him, not kissing him would be enough.
Can his boss suddenly change his pay from full pay to ssp? Help, money worries are hard enough at the moment without this on top.
