Having read many posts on here about HR and how incompetent they are including mine, i was wondering if anybody does have a competent HR. Mine is about as much use as a chocolate fire guard.
Surely they have some training when it comes to dealing with people with disabilitys.

Once upon a time HR were reasonable people to deal with,nowadays they are faceless idiots stuck up their own a***ss.
They are supposed to be in between management and you,not on managements side.The civil service shared services are all idiots! :roll:

I think the hint is in the title, HR. (Human Resources) not people with problems, illnesses or anything else. We are just a resource to be used until we collapse, crash or otherwise cause problems.

I had a real issue las year ago when HR said I couldn't be sick from one part of my job (I split 2 days ward and 3 days desk) without being sick from the other, even though it was the physical side I couldn't do. I ended up using 24 days annual leave rather than having 12 weeks off sick.

What was most baflling was when I went back to the ward I had to have a phased return to work to work for something I couldn't be off sick for.......

I am self employed and in my job I have worked for several large companies as a consultant. I can safely say that I have never seen an effective HR department. The majority of them are numpties.
