Or is it a small company with only a few employees? This sounds very much like my industry and although it sucks there isn't a great deal you can do.

"Bit random but I have had to have some time off work because of an accident and I have been signed off. My boss this morning has posted on Facebook basically an ad for my job and tagged me in it naming and shaming like I haven't turned up for work all week when I have a good reason to be off. Has anyone else experienced this and what did they do? " Speak to the CAB. We don't know enough to give advice based on what you've said. Was it a work or private accident? How long have you been employed and what sick pay benefits (if any) do you get? What kind of employment contract do you have? Have you ffled your obligations in reporting your absence and being signed off, and providing the necessary evidence? Have you been posting on your Facebook page that you've been out partying/horse riding/climbing Mount Everest whilst signed off? Was the job ad for permanent employment or just temporary cover until you return? What you need to do will depend on many questions and answers - but if signed off work by a GP/specialist due to an accident they cannot dismiss you you or replace you with someone on a permanent basis. Get some proper, legal advice. A | |||

That's the main issue I'm picking up on here. Also, just because it's the require industry doesn't mean it's exempt from employment law or even health and safety. The op has stated that the work related injury (which allegedly wasn't recorded by the owner) has caused there to be an issue with their sight. Not sure how much of an issue but I'm guessing you kind of been to see to be able to work safely around horses?! I get what you are saying in as much as work goes on and that is no different in any industry....horses aren't that special, even those of us that file need people to step in and cover their work of they are off! OP you need to ascertain if this is a temporary cover needed for your duties or something more. Sick notes nowadays do not mean your employer cannot ask you to return to work on restricted duties whilst you are ill. This may be something to consider if you are concerned about your future there. | |||

I get what you are saying in as much as work goes on and that is no different in any industry....horses aren't that special, even those of us that file need people to step in and cover their work of they are off! OP you need to ascertain if this is a temporary cover needed for your duties or something more. Sick notes nowadays do not mean your employer cannot ask you to return to work on restricted duties whilst you are ill. This may be something to consider if you are concerned about your future there. " And I agree with you fully but (and I'm sure the op will back me up on this) although that's how it SHOULD be... It's not. It's a lot better than it used to be but there is a long way to go!! | |||

Again.... Hope you feel better op!!! | |||

OPs employers breached her trust, possibly breached health and safety legislation causing her to have an accident - your industry, in the eyes of the law, works exactly the same as mine or anyone elses.

Whilst I can see both side of the argument it does lead me to think, horses are owned by rich people, rich people act like this, maybe they should have it taken off them. | |||
| |||
"I own horses. I'm not rich." I hope if you're in a position to employ people in the future you won't perpetuate these crappy employment practises then! There are many industries which unfortunately seem to still operate a bit like this, and it sometimes seems to be because they're dominated by rich people playing at running a business with their stockbroker spouse's money. | |||
"I own horses. I'm not rich." You're not acting like that, so don't take that as a dig at you, whether you're rich or not. Would you own a horse if it wasn't your living, I guess your business came out of your love of horses. Maybe I'm making assumptions but its fair to assume most horse owners don't live in council flats. If someone has head injury from work that leave them visually impaired and an employer act like this, maybe they should be shut down and that is the end of it, if they treat humans like this, bet you they kick their horses too. | |||
"I own horses. I'm not rich." Would you not employ the OP if she applied for a job,just because she had to have time off in her previous job? | |||

Contact acas speak them you dont have to say who you are or anything just explain the situtation see what info they can give you. They will tell you where you stand basically with the matter and will probably tell you the best way to resolve the issue. Depending on the size of the company would depend on my course of action. If it is a large company say with 1000 plus people they will have a decent HR department i would assume they have a decent HR department so contat them. If any smaller I would probably go to the boss regarding the matter. Really its a breach of confidentiality for starters, then things such as victimisation and bullying.

" Yep....and not just your industry...health and safety at work act (1974 I think) makes directors culpable and the penalties were stepped up in the last few years to include jail terms.....with everyone else on this though...get proper advice before doing anything. | |||

It's the only positive way to move on with your life and avoid any more unnecessary nastiness
Excellent advice
Hang on this is a cop out, if she wants to work with horses that's her choice, why should she trod upon or get out. She's done nothing wrong its the bastard employer, stand up for herself, better go down fighting then yield to those scum.
Explain to me what you think this employer has done wrong?"Doing it in that manner for a start, what kind of nut does that, if you need someone temporarily, just advertise, no need to behave like that, I tell you in my industry the union would have a field day with that. No company boss would be stupid enough to do it. | |||
"Quite funny how topic started about one thing and now about horse owners. Right own up which of you has shergar ??" You probably had him at a bbq at some point | |||

A lot of grooms jobs are advertised on Facebook | |||
"I own horses. I'm not rich. Would you not employ the OP if she applied for a job,just because she had to have time off in her previous job? Of course I would!! If she took them to court and stuff?? Well I'd probably choose someone else." That says volumes about your employment practices. Would you be worried that bad practice would be highlighted and you'd lose a tribunal etc?! Surely any employer working within the law would not be worried about an employer who has previously taken poor employers to court. | |||
"Bit random but I have had to have some time off work because of an accident and I have been signed off. My boss this morning has posted on Facebook basically an ad for my job and tagged me in it naming and shaming like I haven't turned up for work all week when I have a good reason to be off. Has anyone else experienced this and what did they do? " Haven't experienced this but have some experience of advising employees. Take a screenshot, contact ACAS - their services are free - get their opinion on fair employment processes for the situation you describe - tell your employers to contact ACAS too so they can hear about good practice and there is an arbitration service that is free aswell. Might avoid the need to go down suing/legal route - might give them the chance to repair the damage their ill-judged action has caused. I am basing my advice on the presumption that you like your job and you might want to return to the job and have a better relationship with your employer. m x | |||

"Also, slightly off topic....horses can look after themselves. They have been found do for millions of years, it's just humans that have decided they need to live in stables and have supplemented feeds etc. " Well yes I agree but you can't just suddenly dump a fit competition horse in the field and leave it | |||

She has basically told facebook something no one else needed to know as if to shame me for having an accident and needing time off. Why tag my name in it for all to see? Fair enough place an ad but no need for my name to be included in it. That was the whole point of my post | |||

That was the whole point of my post "Ok, no I havnt, do you post things about the yard and tag each other in photos ect?? If you've been there a while maybe the boss/friend line had been blurred abit this has happened to me before, and when you kinda say no I'm an employee they get a bit arsey. Maybe he/she guinuely didn't mean to embarrass or upset you. I would really go and chat face to face. Then if they are being shitty you've shown them your not scared to face them off xx | |||
