Since November 2016 I have worked part time for a large retail chain delivering goods to customers. It has been physically demanding and I have since developed back pain which has led me to take time off (certified by doctor).
My sick notes ran out yesterday, I am still not better and will attempt to get an appointment with my doctor tomorrow.
I have spoken with my direct manager, telling her that I would like/need to come back to work, but will not longer be able to fulfil the role I am contracted for; I followed this conversation up with an email.
I have just spoken with my manager who told me that she would need to speak with one of the shop floor manager to find out whether they are able to accommodate me with shifts. I asked if this was not possible/feasible what then? She basically told me that I would need to make a descision - I am assuming she means go back to driving or picking in the warehouse (not possible) or find myself new employment.
Is this right/legal?
I also, have not received any sick pay despite my docorts notes.
Please help if you can.
