i have just been dismissed from my hjob with the nhs through their promoting attendance at work policy. Over the past few years i have suffered abdominal problems which after various investigations and procedures have been diagnosed as IBS. The NHS Occy Health Physician told my manager that I did not have any underlying health conditions that would keep me away from work. The OHP did not recommend incapacity dismissal but told employee relations and management that the best predictor of future attendance is that based on past. The last two years I cracked my ribs and suffered a broken wrist which had to be corrected a year later with surgery. This was the main reason for absence the past two years. At my appeal hearing my employer decided to not overturn the decision of my manager. Do i have a case to go to tribunal?
FIrst thing, are or were you in a Union? these would be best placed to argue your case for you because if you go to tribunal you have to foot the bill yourself,win o0r lose!. Also were you given the opportunity to take along a workplace colleague at your dismisal hearing. Just a thought that if your employer has not followed greivence procedures you could appeal your dismissal!
as you could be well covered under the DDA, if so then your abscences related to the IBS should not be counted in your "promoting attendance" review and you might be able to claim disability discrimination. I know lots of if buts and maybe's but unfortunately these kind of things are never clear. I have been through the tribunal process (and won) so please do not roll over and give up. Maybe a no fee no win solicitor may be intereseted.......
