Hi can I have a ppp. I am currently pregnant and having a few problems at work. I work in care as a support worker.Firstly is I am nearly 20 weeks and my employer still hasn’t done my risk assessment even though i told them at 12 weeks I was pregnant. so I am unsure what duties i am allowed and not allowed to Do? Secondly I feel like iv been doing a lot of bending over to pick things up, lifting and pulling and have still been hoisting I am finding it very hard as the client I hoist is quite heavy. I have stopped doing as much now as it is straining my back and sometimes my front. I genually feel like I am at risk. And am also feeling down as I feel like my colleagues aren’t supporting me and making me feel like I am not doing my job properly when I am doing everything that I can to help. I really am a hard worjer and since iv been pregnant nothing has changed apart from I haven’t been doing as much pulling and pushing when the client is getting rolled over for personal care. It’s really hard aswell I am working 12 hr shifts and am really tired all of the time and my shifts are one day after the other. Im so annoyed because I could use the pregnancy card at work and get out of doing alot but i am not I am still working fairly and as a team but just feel like it isnt good enough for tjem. Has anyone been in this situation before with either of these? I’m getting fed up and stressed and still got ages to go. God help me when im further along im dreading it. Tia. Zxx
