hello, can anyone advise me on the below: I unfortunately had to recently take 3 weeks certified sick leave due to a family trauma which lead me to stress, panic attacks and other such illnesses. My company as rejected my doctors medical certificate as they do not recognise the type of illness provided.
Does the company have a right to do so? I did not want to disclose any other details on the certificate for private and sensitive reasons. HR (non medical) just deemed my doctors cert unacceptable. I would have even been happy to be assessed by the company doctor but was not given this opportunity.
