  • Hi jenny your firm don't seem to realise that you are classed as disabled so you have more rights. Have a word with macmillan to learn where you stand they might even go in to the meeting with you. Your firm have to be careful, but you have to find exactly where you stand. Good luck. 

    P.s some workers get easier jobs to help them settle back in to work or do part time for a while.
