Ahh just wondered why the HSE would give advice on returning to work, coca cola wow...

nikkit72

nah , the occupational health people call you when u are off sick , and they said its the hse guidelinses , i think its health and safety things, as with the op and the baby i can no longer lift so healt and safety regulations state that my employee must try find me another job , or they will have to suspend me with full pay , a bit confusing to be honest , because i think my gp would just be signing me off till ML anyway

AFAIK The HSE are the official guidelines from the government. All employers must adhere to them, for the health and wellbeing of their staff.
Nikkit is correct if your work and not your doctor decide you can't do your job and can't find you alternative suitable work, they must by law suspend you on full pay til ML

I belong to several product testing companys but this one un -like most at the moment are now looking to recruit more members. If you do join can you pm me and i will give you my forum name so you can make a post in the thread NEW PRODUCT REVIEWERS WANTED! to say that i refered you as they are running a prize for the people who gets so many people to join.

It does cost £5 for the year but i have had so much stuff to test. From changing bags to toys. They used to only give good stuff to those that posted the most on the forum but now this is much fairer way.

elasti is that the one Robin posted about? http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?p=25298111&post25298111

Are you guaranteed to get stuff to test? Cos i'd begrudge spending the £5 (i'm a tightwad:p) if i didn't get any goodies to review!



Oh - edit! I didn't see your link in your post, wish MSE would underline links auto like most other forums lol

Do you mean the Health & Safety Executive, I deal with them daily and am aware of guidelines HAWAWA 1974.. I wasnt sure what happened with Nikkit so asked if she worked for them as it didnt say what her work couldnt provide in post above.

Sorry i didn't know someone else had put a link to it,

oh no it's not the same one. I have been testing for www.thebabywebsite.com For a while now. You are guaranteed to get your money worth back in products and more. Like i said i have had a changing bag from them, Some nappy rash cream, a baby toy by tomy and a fab bob the builder toy. They have just asked me if i would like to test a pushchair i have said yes but i don't hold out much hope for this as they said they have email several people and i guess it's who ever is having their baby sooner for that one. They aren't going to give me it when i still have 3 months to go but you never know.

The last thing i got was the bob the builder toy seen here http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.204-2689.aspx so you can see i got my money back just on that.
