I’ve nc for this as it’s fairly outing.
I have been asked to attend a capability hearing regarding my sickness. It’s in line with the sickness policy, so I can’t dispute that work are not following protocol.
I triggered sickness monitoring as I had a period of absence of over 5 days, then had a period of absence due to work related stress and burnout within the timeframe of the monitoring agreement.
As I don’t have an underlying health condition the policy is the next step of a capability hearing.
I’ve been sent the relevant documentation and have been told that I can submit relevant documents also.
During the absence with stress, I had a meeting with HR during which HR staff typed notes. I have been informed that the staff member who took these notes is unable to find them.
Can the hearing go ahead given the absence of the meeting notes?
During the meeting I discussed the lead up to me going off sick.
I will submit a document regarding this.
I plan to contact my union and/or ACAS tomorrow but wanted to ask advice on here.
