Thanks dookar. Sorry, i'm not the best with technology.

So basically as long as i phone them tomorrow and let them know the 3 days i was ill, i should be ok?

So because i was ill it isn't classed as refusal of employment?

That bit where you said they would probably see it as having missed an employment opportunity, but the people who know the 'rules' will ignore it. My advisor should know the rules shouldn't he?

Yes you were ill so it will not be refusal of employment.

Your adviser is not a decision maker, he may have some rudimentary knowledge of the subject matter but will not be an expert. The level of knowledge required by him, really, is just that RE is naughty and should be referred. The decision maker will then decide if you did, indeed, refuse employment and if they decide you did they will decide if you had good cause.

So when you say that the level of knowledge required by my advisor is that RE is naughty and should be referred.

Mine shouldn't be referred to a decision maker for being ill should it?

In my opinion, yes it should. Maybe I'm a purist, though.

Howcome you think it should dookar? I've not done anything wrong by being ill have i?

Sorry, I didn't mean to worry you.

What I meant is that the only way to get a fair and correct decision is for a decision maker to make that decision rather than an adviser.

There could be a list of circumstances under which a referral wouldn't be made and sickness may be on it, I don't know though
