Basically, partner started work in Jan after a while out of work, great news.
He does the domestics in a care home so sees a lot of sick and sometimes deceased people. Anyway last week, we found out his mum has cancer. OH obviously took it badly, and when he went to work the following day had a melt down and started crying etc, his work was very good about it and told him to take until the 8th off. What is concerning me is that whether he will be able to go back and stick at it, given the nature of the job and what with him mother being sick. What would happen if it got too much and he had to be signed off, could he claim anything? Am really stressing, obviously am concerned for him mum being sick, but also am worried about what happens if he can't do his job, :(
