Hi also check out the DWP guidance to GP's in how such matters should be managed i.e. back to work and speak to your manager!! The dwp advice clearly states that it is inappropriate to 'medicalise' non medical matters! I add extracts from this in letters to gp's suggesting a final med 3 is the best medicine to get the matter in hand dealt with.

The article provides a sample HR policy suggesting how to deal with people that go off with "stress" simply because they have had an argument with their boss/colleague or maybe had a bad appraisal. If anyone can remember this article and point me in the right direction I would be very grateful. Many thanks in advance. David ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Please remove this footer before replying.
