Thanks for the input Vanash.

This particular Dr is regularly visited by our Staff and many others as well. It's not the first time I've raised my eyebrows at the reason for absenteeism and the reasons therefor, but this one truly takes 1st Prize.

I'm tempted to go to him on the pretence of being a patient and then confronting him with the Doctors Note and a few questions. I've tried phonong before but he is always busy with patients, so you end up speaking with the assistant who cant provide answers.

If he had asked the questions and she had been truthful, he would have determined that neither her duties nor her safety are in any way impacted by a "Blue Eye".
I would have accepted 1, at a push 2 days, but 4 is ridiculous beyond the extreme.

Can you provided any guidance on what our statutory labour law obligations are in this instance?
