I started a new job a few months back and am still under probation. I started having chronic health issues just before starting the job, so I asked for help once I started. I was told I would be contacted by a manager but that never happened. I have told my employer about my chronic illness on my first day when they had everyone fill out medical history forms. I have discussed it with the seniors in charge of me as well. During flare ups, it is easier for me to stay home then go into office.
However, I have recently been told that despite the job having a hybrid aspect, I cannot work from home if I am unwell (including a chronic illness flareup). This means I am now being forced to either take sick days or go to office. The employer has also told me that there is a absence trigger that will be hit if I take x amount of days of in an x rolling period.
The stress of the job and the non-existing, pretend flexibility I was lured in with is causing more flareups, meaning more time off work. I am now concerned that I will be dismissed without warning as I am still within the company's probation period.
Is there anything I can do here? I need a job some ASAP and want out, but I am also in the process of buying a house so quitting on the spot right now isn't necessarily an option. But losing my job will also have a huge impact on it.
Really wishing I could get more from a work-free life.
