Compensation claim with employment lawyers

Compensation claim with employment lawyers 

Mrs Winchcomb had worked as a data entry clerk for over 7 years. She had been diagnosed with lupus and she needed to use her wheelchair to get about in work.

Her manager had been replaced and the new manager was not sympathetic towards her. He would never ask if she would like a tea or coffee although he knew she would struggle to get into the kitchen in work and he would ask her to get items from the upper shelves which he knew she was unable to reach. Mrs Winchcomb began to feel much stressed before work and her doctor recommended that she had time off work due to stress. When she returned to work her manager made her life intolerable.
