When to go back to work?

[lookingatsomemarrows]

I rang in this morning to work to say I wasn't feeling well but would try to get in for lunchtime so I could get on with some stuff.
They said no no it's fine take the day off, what exactly is wrong. I said I felt sick and dizzy and just a bit off (have now put it down to low blood pressure which I haven't had for a few years ). Anyway , line manger has just emailed to say I can't return to work for 48 hours post episode of sickness, but I haven't actually been sick! Can I go in tomorrow ?! I want to as I have stuff to do and I've recently started the job so don't want to make a bad impression.

Sounds like you work with food in some way. If you do,no you can't go back in - it's a health/safety/hygiene issue.

Oh no I'm just Admin!

It's still the same policy wherever you work,according to the fit for work policy. Is there any way you can work from home?

Nope I can't do anything at all frustratingly. I haven't actually been sick, just felt all weird this morning.

Just tell them it's low blood pressure and you'll be back tomorrow.

I think I will as am anxious to not get a bad sick record.
