Can anyone help? Please Please

I have been advise that they should of asked for the arrears only not all of the balance. Is this ture:?

Hi All, they have stopped my Flex Account the first I knew of this was trying to buy a few bits at Tesco's. I phoned up to today and was told that the would only allow me to take my money out if I paid the outstanding balance in full!!! I have not received any information via the post of the stop notice!!! The person on the phone would not accept my offer of paying the card in half to removed the stop notice. Any advise welcomed!!!

Have you asked if your condition will last longer than 12 months? If this is the the case than you could be protected under the DDA. I still suggest contacting them because they will not wish to fund the reasonable adjustments if they consider you not to be disable under the DDA.

Hi, have you been in contact with Access To Work for an assessment they can fully fund or part fund (usual 80% of the full cost) any recommended reasonable adjustments? If they continue to make no effort in implementing reasonable adjustments then you have to bring a Employment Tribunal cases within 3 months of their inaction and or refusal.

Hi found it; http://www.hse.gov.uk/pubns/indg174.pdf The above is the HSE guide to Personal Protective Equipment regulations 1992

Hi sparky236, when, I did my CSCS test it stated in the training book that the employer has to purchase PPE for their employees. I have tried goggle it but have only come up with the following links; PPE - Personal Protective Equipment - Compensation Claim Advice Management of Health and Safety at Work | Six Pack Regulations | Award Health & Safety Ltd I would try the HSE website if you quot the correct law to your employer they should put up or shut up! I think, I have found it try the link below; HSE Web Communities - Construction Discussion Forum - PPE I wish you the best of luck!

Hi, I am also covered by the DDA. Were you the aggressive sort you could send an e-mail or letter (recorded) asking them to put their request that you should resign in writing. That you have been advise to do this so that you can fully considered if their request comply with the DDA. Also were you to resign you can not just sign on and could loss a shed load of benefits. Take care, it sounds like life is about to get very stressful just take care of your health. I would also suggest phoning an epilepsy disability helpline they can offer help and advise for free.

If you have not got legal cover and do not have the funds yourselves then it is a no win no fee lawyer. The other option for free legal advise at the point of delivery is sometimes Universities with law departments will take on cases. I take you are aware that you need to fill in your ET1 form 3 months and 1 day after you have been fired? Also go back to CAB and explain what happened and ask if they have an employment advise that can help you fill in the ET1 forms or send you to another lawyer who is totally free. I take it you do not wish to fill in the ET1 yourselves? Finally, I know that a family member had employment issue during pregnancy and used a firm called baby law.

You cannot get legal aid for employment tribunal (ET) cases. I take it that you are not a member of an Union? If this is the case check your house hold insurance for legal cover. If you do not have legal cover you might be lucky to find a law centre in your local area that will take the cases on for free. If not the CAB can refer you to employment lawyers that can only be accessed via them. The last option would be a no win no fee lawyer, you will know very quickly if you have an easily winnable case because they will bite your hand off to take you on. The reason for this is they will expect a large percentage of any pay out and will only take on cases where there is a 60% of wining. You can ring ACAS if you like, make a cup of tea and wait anywhere between 15/30 minutes before the answers the phone. It will not be worth the wait the quality of advice can be very variable and sometime down right wrong! ACAS helpline Monday–Friday, 08:00–20:00 – 08457 47 47 47. Go to CAB and get referred to an employment lawyer.

I am still employed by the employer that have not provided my with workable reasonable adjustments. I have bee advised that when an employer does not provide your reasonable adjustments, I could off resigned (in good time) and claimed constructive dismissal. Given that by not providing the recommended support my employer has made a serious breach of the employment contract. I did not resign after the grievance appeal outcome because, I was trying to sort out lawyers and was on full sick pay still. I could not afford to resign and then claim constructive dismissal. But now they have halved the pay and I need to move on due to their lack of support and or advising an appropriate way forward i.e. make reasonable adjustments in full with training, gradual return to work etc. Should, I make an attempt to return work so that if they were to refuse it would improve my ET case? They do not keep in regular contact with me and my point of contact with HR is the person who was involved in refusing my reasonable adjustments in the first place. When my employer investigated the grievance they could not be involved because allegedly they give the advise to my manager on what should be provided.
