FWA guidance

[sweatband]

For years I've had an FWA, and I'm just looking for a bit of advice.

Post pandemic I seem to have been put in a annual FWA, prior to that it was just an FWA.

I'm a bit curious as to why it's suddenly
something work want to review every 12 months, as I have a physical disability which is the reason for the FWA in the first place. It's a lifelong disability so isn't going to suddenly improve.

Also, some colleagues have a permanent FWA, so it's not like it's all being dealt with the same way, which I could then understand.

I'm speaking to my HR person next week as doing this annually causes me a lot of stress, so you think I should mention this?

Check your contract/FWA t&cs - they often have a clause where they are reviewed annually.

Yes they do, but my issue is some of my colleagues don't have this annual review. Their FWAs are for childcare reasons, and mine is not

If yours is due to disability reasons has it gone through Occ health and been recorded as a reasonable adjustment on health grounds?

Yes it's gone through all the OH reccomendations and channels, and it was perm until about 3 years ago when the entire firm all came back to thenoffuce. I'm willing to accept a change happened there that made them change their stance overall, but as I know some of my colleagues don't have to do it annually, and theirs doesn't relate to disability, I'm curious
