What does his contract say about notice period? Because that is going to be all he is required to give, not something agreed verbally.

You really need to treat this situation professionally. You seem to think that he owes you or your Dad something, but he doesn't. he is/was an employee, and owes you nothing more than whatever notice period is in his contract. Employees come and go from businesses all the time. It's not personal, it's the way the world works.

Hi

No definetly not, he owes me nothing, ive always said that to him and anybody else. The stuff we have had to put up from him in the past, is what i was referring to. At its worst he was having a rough time so we excused it... hindsight is a wonderful thing though.

Its not personal but the way he is trying to play a game with us makes it personal to me my mom and dad. Instead of being reasonable honest and decent as we have always been with him.

If you aren't able to read a handful of short paragraphs you wouldn't have been capable of helping the op anyway.

Well that's your fault then. Are you running a business or a nursery?


Create policies, use them effectively and don't deviate from them.

He can self certify for the first seven days of sickness. After that a fit note is required for SSP purposes.

Now this absolutely amazed me as he has been his normal jokey self, ive known the lad most of my life, i know when something is up.

I doubt very much that you do. From my own experience and that of loved ones, you don't know what is going on behind someone's smiling exterior. It can be those that appear strongest that are really suffering inside.

I don't know if he's swinging the lead or not, but please don't assume to know what is going on in someone else's head, however well you know them.

So your policy is to excuse inappropriate behaviour? Or what?


How has he deviated from the policy, so far as I can see, he's called in sick. Is that a breach of policy?

No obviously not........ we were being whats called helpful to a friend at the time. I understand your comment now about policys, and yes maybe we should have got rid but it stopped soon after and didnt really have many issues after that. Point taken there.

Im not sure hence why im asking, solicitor seems to think we have a case, tbh i dont have the contracts in front of me to tell you all the details, so maybe im asking an unanswerable question without the relevant info. Sorry my head is all over the gaff at the minute.
