If it's for mental health reasons she no doubt walks the assessment. Behaviour that would not be acceptable in the workplace. An inability to deal with other people in a normal manner and so on... Maximum points.
A large metallic rock to the head?
You are correct, sir!
That is similar to the defence that Neelu used when she took the NHS Trust to tribunal they closed an entire hospital and made hundreds of staff redundant just to get rid of her. She was actually given a choice of a more junior grade position at another hospital or redundancy. They would not have offered Neelu another job if they wanted rid of her.notorial dissent wrote: ↑Sat Jul 14, 2018 4:11 pm My suspicion, FWIW, is that this pre-dated the niece's death, that may have been the trigger point, but she may have been acting out for year, and may well have been why she was made redundant, she was too much of a pain to keep on and that was the only way to be rid of her. I certainly can't imagine working with/around her would have been fun.
She was a qualified pharmacist IIRC. A transfer would have her keep the same pay grade and another job would still have minimum levels of salary.notorial dissent wrote: ↑Sun Jul 15, 2018 9:53 am 0r they offered the more jr position knowing she would refuse. That's an old stunt around here.

Which is why when working I was always a member of a union. You might not like what the leadership got up to (and I didn't) but it was free legal advice and representation which was usually enough to scare management even in places which didn't recognise unions!
Correct, we are in violent agreement here!notorial dissent wrote: ↑Mon Jul 16, 2018 12:35 am Yes, but if the job had been made redundant and there wasn't a similar one elsewhere and she was offered the settlement or to take a lesser job elsewhere then those were the options.
Absolutely. I spent >20yrs climbing the greasy pole, and in the last 6yrs I've been "demoted" twice in cost-saving restructures. It's fantastic. I have loads of respect and credibility in the organisation, and protected pay, so I have nothing but gratitude.Footloose52 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 16, 2018 7:55 am When I was first made redundant my role had disappeared; I had three options, redundancy, apply for promotion (most unlikely to succeed) or take a lesser role on a protected grade and salary until the role I had moved into caught up with my pay level. I chose redundancy, best thing that company ever did for me.
