Hi@Gem2Boyz
Thanks for your query.
I'm glad to hear that your employer is there to support you with reasonable adjustments.
When it comes to PIP, you do not have to inform your employer.
I wish you all the best on returning to work.
Kind Regards
Pia

No Yano you don’t have to inform your employer that you are receiving PIP, but if they ask you can tell them you receive help with your, either daily living or mobility or both, it up to you but if the employer can make adjustments to your employment situations then they should, must make every effort to help you
