Do I need to declare myself fit to attend a grievance hearing?
I am signed unfit for work due to anxiety brought on by bullying, discrimination, harassment. The most horrid things have been written about me in emails etc and I have copies. Horrible discriminatory things have been said to my face and in front of witnesses. I have been having panic attacks and not sleeping.
I have been signed off for about 3 months now. I submitted a grievance and still haven't had one yet.
oh and they haven't put in place adjustments I needed which is also part of the grievance.
Anyway I complained about the delays and they said they can't do a grievance hearing whilst I'm signed off sick, they need my GP to declare me fit. I think this is just stupid excuses.
I submitted my grievance with all the information they needed and evidence attached. I am happy to attend a grievance hearing but not return to work whilst these matters are unresolved and with the main person responsible still my manager.
I asked on the justanswer website and the solicitor there says it is further discrimination to say I need to be fit for work before a hearing takes place. Is this true?
I'm in a union but my union rep doesn't seem to be available those past 2 days.
It's a fucked up situation and I'm trying to get another job but not having much luck as I'm disabled and my qualifications are niche.
