Hi just a quick outline of my problem,hoping someone will advice me or give their opinion.I am 49 year old lady currently on ssp from work due to ill health and have been told by my personnel manager that my company have agreed to give me a full ill health pension.
I will need to see their doctor in 2 years time as I am currently waiting to start new treatment which may or may not mean a big improvement of my condition but will not cure it, as it is progressive.
Now I went to see my manager on Friday and it turns out I will have to see this doctor every 2 years until I reach pension age.
I wont get the cash lump sum due to this proviso.
My question is this, is this normal practice or am I being duped here,should I contact my union rep and ask them whats what.
Sorry that was more than 1 question.
Daisy
