Tough time with work and becoming ill

My experience of becoming ill and finding such wonderful support initially from my employer, to the massive differential change when changed benefit from CSA to JSA.& no support but plenty of pushing to make my workplace uncomfortable to work in.with threats of being sacked for sickness time off. Until I accepted medical retirement, since this no employer will give me a chance. Disgusting having such an excluding society.
