Hi! New to mumsnet and hoping for some opinions and advice on my current situation.
I left work almost a year ago on mat leave to have my LG born March 2016, my return to work date is 13th Feb 2017.
I sent an email to my line manager 3rd November stating my preference would be to return on a PT basis but I would be happy to return FT if PT wasn't the company's preference.
I did not get a reply to this email until 23rd December where my line manager stated he was no longer my LM and gave me details of the person who is.
I emailed that person 28th December to ask whether or not my PT request had been agreed (and additionally where I will be based as my company have 6 offices locally) I am yet to have a response.
So I got in touch with HR last week to ask if they could give me any info, they haven't come back to me.
I go back to work in just under 4 weeks and I don't particularly want to cause an issue BUT, I feel like by their non responses I may legitimately have a claim for maternity discrimination (due to lack of response to my PT request). I am thinking of penning and email to head of HR to state I feel I may be pushed into resigning because I don't know the details of my return and therefore cannot organise childcare (I do have a nursery organised but feel that's not the point, if they do allow me to return PT I am already committed to paying FT care for my LG)
Just looking for opinions I guess- WWYD!? Thanks in advance!
