Sickness Absence

[bubbly1]

Hi, I have been off sick due to work related stress. I have less than 2 years service.

Whilst I was off sick, i informed my employer that I have dyslexia (which is a protected under the Equality Act 2010)

Their absence policy is very vague.

What does the law say in terms of bringing me back to work.

Is there a process they must follow?

There is nothing in law regarding the process for bringing someone back to work.

Given that you have been off for work related stress and that you have informed your employer of you dyslexia then a course of action the company could take is to refer you to Occupational Health. This could help provide an opinion on what, if any reasonable adjustments, are suggested for you to return to work. This may be things like a phased return and changes to your work environment to accommodate your dsyslexia.
