What if I'm Ill when my medical is due???

[Emilymay86]

My husband has his managers interview in January- but is recovering from an inner ear infection giving him vertigo. What happens if he still had this at his medical?? Gould he ask to postpone it or will they be ok with a short term condition like this that should clear with antibiotics in a couple of weeks??

Best thing is to ring them and ask, only the TOC will be able to answer for definite, but I would think the worst they would do would be to postpone the medical for a few weeks.

Its better to ask them early rather than chance it and lose out.

This is a bit of a gamble, I would do as 455 suggests and contact the TOC explaining to them the problem and asking for a postponement as soon as possible.

Do you mean you suggest asking to postpone manager interview? Or just the medical if he gets offered the job? Thanks for your advice by the way!

Just the medical as this infection will only affect this part of the assessment.
