Friend who works for a small employer (10) had to go for a check up today
medical reason was told in confidence to the boss.
A few hours later friend gets a call from colleague asking if everything was okay and discussing what had been told in confidence to boss earlier.
Friend understandably livid at her boss for discussing private and personal matters to work colleagues. What if anything can friend do ?
Called ACAS who said look at possible confidentiality clauses in contract ?
Any other suggestions or advice appreciated.
