Health and safety leave for creche teacher

Emanu86 · 2020-01-12 23:18:56

I'm a teacher in a creche and I'm pregnant. I am not immune to chicken pox and working in that creche could expose me to this risk. I was wondering if anyone had a similar experience and if a profession like this can be considered a job at risk allowing me to get a "health and safety" leave.

Best contact your crèche to ask their policy. And your GP to see if he’ll issue a medical cert for your leave.
