Hi Guys. Richard Hume here.... Thanks for your comments. I am trying to be supportive despite what Debbie accuses me of as are her colleagues. BUT, the point I am trying to make is that I have no way of checking her story. I have discussed the issues with her and got her to sign a GP consent form, however the clinic refuses to give ANY information. I wrote to them asking that they must have some leaflets or giv their clients some kind of information pack. They reluctantly sent me something which doesn't support any of what my employee is saying, leading me to think that she is perhaps making mountains out of molehills. In the meantime, her job isn't getting done, my customers are complaining and her colleagues are getting tired of following her around. Remember, she is a cleaner who cannot bend, cannot empty bins and can't use chemicals. She refuses to use holiday entitlement for rest days, she won't change her hours, and when under treatment lets me down with hardly no notice. I am quickly coming to the conclusion she is unfit/unable to do the job. Two of you have suggested an occupational therapist and this may be the way forward. I am due to have another informal chat with her and to say that I am not prepared to carry on like this. We must agree a way of moving forward that suits us both which may mean making some tough decisions. I really do want to help her, but have no supportive info or legislation making it extreeeeeemely frustrating
Thanks to James and Jenny. Very helpful!!

I have a member of staff who is undergoing IVF. She moves around the building with a like something out of 'living dead', shuffling around blankly. She is a cleaner and can't empty waste paper baskets (according to her) nor cn she use chemicals as they make her ill (according to her). I can find no evidence of this on all the websites and even from the information sent from the clinic she is attending ( I had to write to them and ask for it). I think she may be 'swinging the lead' but my hands are tied trying not to cause upset etc. Her colleagues have had enough of her and no I need to take some action. Where can I get REAL information, I can only ever find a couple of lines in an article. Surely there is something moer concrete???
