point
BVT Can I point out one thing, I started out in May last year with a lot of illusions and hopes, almost every single day since I started working, I’ve been bullied, if not by team leader then people in the team, 11 months DW Which Is why we are here today to go through it all and then we can see where we go from here Danielle goes through the RTW form, she covers the email sent by EH regarding number of days absent and deduction from payroll
BVT Are you aware of the Bullying act here in Gibraltar? I do not accept this
DW Not been investigated and hasn’t been proven, at the moment its an allegation
BVT 11 months of allegation
DW We need to go through the proper process which I’m supporting you with now, I am going to support you through. Just let me go through this form with you.
BVT Sorry to interrupt, I am not myself at the moment, I’m normally an easy going guy, glass half full but this has just taken it out of me
DW We are here to try to help you.
DW From this particular instance of sickness, total of 15 days, stress related anxiety, your email outlines some of the reasons you feel that your absence is related to the work place, a lot of it aimed at Susana Martin, I’m acknowledging that I understand what you are saying
BVT Okay, do you acknowledge that it was hard for me to write, thinking over months, aware how difficult its been for me
DW Yes I am, trying to help you move forward first. I have to go through this form okay (refers to RTW)
BVT Yes I understand
DW No recommendations on these doctors notes
BVT Recommendations for what?
DW If you go to Dr, let’s say you hurt your back, Dr says this person will struggle to sit at their desk, they will have physio, might say don’t sit for full day, get up every 30 mins, walk around etc, Drs put recommendations on to help the return to work. So I’m just noting the fact your notes do not have recommendations. I’m going to attach your email to the return to work so that we have full understanding of what it is. The form also asks about any form of disability we should be aware of
BVT Shakes head (indicating NO)
DW From an HR perspective I need to take it very seriously that you are alleging bullying,
