Maximum Facepalm
Asking for a bit of advice here - my work are asking for my consent to refer them to their Occupation Health providers.
Basically, my job is a consultancy role with some additional training responsibilities, so talking is fairly important.
Also, I pretty much lost my voice a bit over a year ago. After lots of NHS arsing about they have decided to operate on my voice (officially got onto waiting list a couple of weeks ago), but work have been getting increasingly generally arsey about my not being able to fulfil the training aspects of my role, and are now talking about this referral.
I'm not too sure what the agenda is, but I suspect they might be looking for the legally smoothest way to elbow me out of my role without paying the redundancy that would be due owing to my tenure at the company.
I've already told them that they could speed up the operation by paying for it. The end result of the operation is uncertain in any case (involves sticking a kind of shim in my throat to shove a paralysed vocal cord into a more workable position).
Just wondering if anyone had any similar or relevant experience in this direction / thoughts etc.
