Med 3 or self cert? Not that it makes much difference, I see all sorts of wired reasons for absence written by GPs (eg TATT - which apparently means tired all the time) - depends what the stress was i suppose, it could range from severe domestic violence( in which case sickness absence probably justified) to the cat dying or the washing machine flooding, in which case sickness absence should not be the vehicle by which absence should be taken and maybe leave would be the better option. ________________________________ From: [log in to unmask] [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Gail Collins Sent: 21 May 2008 10:19 To: [log in to unmask] Subject: [OCC-HEALTH] Your opinion sought again please One of our employees have just submitted a sick note for 'domestic stress'. - Is this technically a medical reason for absence? - do I count this in my medical absence stats? I'm dumbfounded (again) Kind regards Gail Gail Collins RGN DPP OccHealth Occupational health Tel. ext. 3202 Burtons Foods LLANTARNAM CWMBRAN TORFAEN NP44 3YL +44 (0) 1633 482271 +44 (0) 1633 871539 ______________________________________________________________________ Any opinions expressed in this email are those of the individual and not necessarily those of Burton's Foods Ltd.
