Lost my dad

Hey all I’m new here and I’m really struggling. On the 23rd October my dad was diagnosed with cancer in 4 places we lost him 17 days later and I’m broken I don’t know how to move on. I’ve been off work since the diagnosis but they are pressuring me to go back or I will loose my job.

So sorry for you loss. I’ve lost my dad as well and struggle daily. It’s hard enough without having to worry about your job. Is there any way you could do a phased return, to make it less stressful?

I’m not sure that you can lose your job over sickness, can you? Can you ask for a copy of their sick leave policy? Is there any advice on the Citizens Advice Webpage?
