I have a injury that occured outside of work, it is infact an infected toe. I am on anti-biotics. I can walk but it is very painful.



The job I normally do is standing all day, this is fine. I was told to move to another area, which involves walking constantly for the next 10 hours. I refused this work because it was unreasonable, I was then told I am unfit for work, and I should go home which i told them to send me home but you would have to pay me. They then threatened me with disciplinary, and then said If i stay inside the building and still refuse the work they will take me off the clock.



  • failed to make reasonable adjustments for 1 day

  • threatened with disciplinary

  • told I was unfit for work but would not send me home

  • I am fit to work just need adjustments for one day.

Are they wrong to act like this?
