Work stress for 5yrs, nothing done - constructive dismissal?
Discussion
Wife is having a very tough time at work and has actually been signed off stress sick for last 3 months.
She had what was supposed to be a 'managing your stress and return to work' meeting this week which was very clearly not what happened and she is now is a worse state than she was when she went in.
We think there is clear grounds for constructive dismissal as her line manager was informed about the situation back in April and has done nothing, even avoiding some fundamental issues and point in this weeks meeting that have been pinpointed in her work stress assessment.
She doesn't need to MTFU, in the last 3month she is better than she has been in the last 5years so, almost back to the woman I fell in love with 18 years ago.
So, anyone else been through this, any legal bids willing to help, advise, talk us/her through the procedure?
Many Thanks.

Because it was a good job, package and terms, she liked the job and people around her and wants to stay there, it's the new (5yr old) reporting structure and the tactics of the line manager that is causing her stress. OH dept have diagnosed 5yrs of work related stress!
Her mental (stress and anxiety) health has deteriorated over the past 2 - 3 years but trust me it has taken something significant for her to realise and accept what we have being saying to her (it's stress). It's a mid level public sector role and there are very clear policies on stress and bullying that have not been followed.

It is the usual PH thing, that PH is so big you cant post all or any details for fear of people on the other side viewing.
It could also become a legal issue, so therefore, divulging info could be derimental to the situation.
Finally, as part of an update, we & the union, are going for grevance on two different counts.
