CPP-D
Hey everyone, I have a question. I'm being forced to retire because of this disease. My walking isn't getting better, and it's really hard to do my job. I'm a technician in the aerospace sector. My question is, I'm 39 and have been doing this kind of work for almost 20 years. Has anyone had to change jobs so it was easier on their body? If so, how was the change? Was it easy? Because I can't retire. I'm only 39. What am I going to do at home all day?
In UK your employment rights are covered by the disability at work acts. Your work is required to make ‘reasonable’ adjustments’ . Someone from an MS charity should be able to advocate for your in an HR meeting where you should be able to discuss ( with support and suggestions from your advocate) provisions/ajustments required to enable you to keep working.
Request accommodation because base on your diagnosis, if you provide them the documents and request an accommodation, they should able to provide an accommodation to the undue hardship. That is in the human rights of Canada. Now concerning you not being able to walk, please find the book healing Ms written by Anne borroch and read part 3 as soon as possible and follow instructions. You will be able to walk properly. And avoid many Ms symptoms. Iam in Canada as well. Base on the human rights there are supposed to accommodate your jobs, give you something related, but for them to do that you need a document from your Ms specialist and you make the request.
