Please can anyone help with the following:
We have an employee currently off on long-term sick absence with ?sciatica.
His GP is happy to provide sick certs ad nauseum. His Physio has told him
he is fit to return to work. He agreed to be seen by our OH Physician who
examined him and declared him fit to work. The employee is insisting that
he is not fit and I believe his GP will continue to issue sick certs as he
wishes.
Can we insist that he return to work as declared by our OH Physician or can
he refuse if his GP provides a further cert?
Has anyone had a similar experience or does anyone have knowledge of any
regs etc that I can quote please??? Can any of you Doctors out there help
please?
Many thanks
Lynda
