    I broke my knee cap in July, and I came off crutches 3 weeks ago. I now have a note saying that I can return to work, as I work in a bike shop and need to be on my feet all day. But work will only allow me to do a phased return of 2 days for 4 weeks, do they have to pay me my full pay or just what I work? Because I want to go back full time and feel fit enough to do this!

    well are you fit to do your job to the same level you did before you broke your knee cap?

    What does it actually say? You are capable of returning to the same job and workload as before or that you can do a phased return?
