I have a relatively new health condition that means that I am quite restricted in my movement and going beyond that causes severe pain. It is not sufficient to be classed under disability law but aspects of it are recognised as debilitating. My employer was made aware of this 6 months ago. I requested a RA which was acknowledged and delayed due to covid. I subsequently went off sick, during which I requested OH involvement, with no response. During my absence management meeting a RA and OH assessment was agreed, but I was refused a phased return and had to go back to full duties, full time. My condition has deteriorated again, and it has taken several weeks for the OH report and RA to be carried out. The RA suggests that several major changes should be made.
I am on the verge of handing in my notice as my mental health is in tatters after months of no contact, and being expected to perform (including industry-wide unpaid overtime) at full pelt, whist suffering from increasing pain, with no RA or adjustments in place. I am awaiting my new contract before I hand in my notice (I have been open about the condition but new role should minimise risk naturally).
Do I have grounds for constructive dismissal?
