Work Occupational Health
Hi All- I’m really struggling with work. My main struggles used to be physical with poor mobility and fatigue but now my cognition and brain fog is affecting my work to the point that my productivity has really decreased. This is even being monitored so it’s clear to see in comparison to the rest of team. Is there any help that you think I could request from my Occupational Health Department? Im clinging on to my job and feel that I should prepare for the worst 😞
I know how you feel. The first thing you need to do is read this: https://www.mssociety.org.uk/care-and-support/resources-and-publications/publications-search/work-and-ms-an-employees-guide Then send your employer this: https://www.mssociety.org.uk/care-and-support/everyday-living/working-and-ms/information-for-employers Loads of support here https://www.mssociety.org.uk/care-and-support I have found Occupational Health supportive at work (though I had to "moan" to get an app't!). I am now leaving work in order to do something less stressful.......teaching is making my symptoms worse. Good luck to you friend!
@squareuno If you have a mortgage see if You have critical illness cover you may be able to claim. If you work look at access to work thru dwp.
