Frequently asked
questions
I am having problems at work. What can I do?
If you are experiencing difficulties at work because of endometriosis,
you may want to contact us for a copy of our leaflet for employers. We
have produced this leaflet to highlight some of the issues
involved with endometriosis in the workplace. We want
to make employers aware of some of the options available to
them, to work with their employee with endometriosis and reduce
the impact that endometriosis has on their work. You
may have a union or someone in your HR department who you
can go to for advice, in confidence. Endometriosis UK
employs women with the condition, so if your employer would like
practical advice on managing endometriosis at work, please
contact our Chief Executive.
Your employment terms and conditions
in your contract or staff handbook should explain the company’s procedures
on discipline, grievance, and sickness absence. In
addition, you can contact your union, HR department, or ACAS
(
www.acas.org.uk/ - 08457
47 47 47) for advice.
For advice on any work related issues, try the ACAS website
