Hi there,
I am hoping that Eloise may be able to give me some insight into a situation. This relates to my husband who works for a division of my father's company.
My Husband is hypothyroid and because of this he can become quite unwell if his meds need adjusting. This has caused him to take quite a number of days off from work over the last 3 years. Last month he fell Ill and was in hospital with pneumonia. Thankfully he recovered after 3 weeks and was back in work. When he returned a particular manager started to overtly undermine him infront of other staff. He started picking apart his work and criticising the speed at which he did his job. Started calling him names, is overtly racist saying things like " you are just a mad Turk, no one takes you seriously" he is anti Islamic and my husband endures endless taunts about his religion.
Today his boss came over to the project he was working on and told him to go and get a fuse, he went off to look in the place he was told, the guy comes up behind him and shouts " why are you wasting time, are you blind" and then produces a fuse from another pallet. My husband calmly said " do you have a problem
With me?" before he could say anything else. His boss pushed him against a work bench and opened up a foul mouthed deluge against him. The manager then storms off to the office Followed by my husband. As if this was nor enough, the manager then shouted infront of other staff, " you need to behave yourself and F off home or I will sack you"
I am completely shocked and appalled No matter what the situation this is scandalous behaviour.
The advice I would like to gain, is really how does he tackle this. He doesn't want to go to work tomorrow but I think that not going would be Ill advised as he will be just giving more ammunition to them.
