Dismissal - Appeal - Bullet Points

[berlintaxi]

Account manager could be either sales, which you say it isn't, or credit control, neither of which sound like particularly strenuous jobs, how did the injury occur?

No, an account manager told him to appeal in bullets. Maybe OP got the wrong end of the stick

The fact that you are in your probation period makes not a jot of difference because under employment law they can dismiss you in any time frame up to the first two years. Probation periods are hang overs from previous law that gave employment rights at much earlier terms but many companies still use them so that there can be a focus to making sure you are right much earlier.

If the injury was caused at work and it is this injury which has subsequently made you unable to work they cannot summarily dismiss you as that would be unsafe. In these kind of situations companies would often asses your ability to work in terms of doing a different job where your injury doesn't impact for the duration of the issue rather than get rid of you. Were you offered a change in duties and a return to work plan put together? if this was offered but you turned it down because it wasn't "the job for you" or any other reason then you start to weaken your case severely.

I hope in your list of bullet points you have shown how you have cooperated with everything the company has asked thus far as the points need to show why you think the dismissal would be unsafe.

Good luck

Speak to a specialist employment lawyer. They are on a very sticky wicket, on dismissal for work induced health problem, even during probation.
