Hello
I have recently been diagnosed with Autism and ADHD at the age of 45. I am really angry about the way former employers treated me even though this was 5 years ago. I have a strong sense of justice that causes me to get into trouble when I see things that aren't right and I speak up. My ex-boss didn't like this and victimised me which caused massive mental health issues and a breakdown.
Is it still possible to get legal redress for my situation even though it is more than 5 years ago? I have only just recovered from this ordeal and started to read my emails and it is shocking what happened to me but i wasn't strong enough to take action at that time.
Thank you
Lee
Yeah - similar here aged lte 40s diagnosis.
Lost an entire career due to not wishing to do immoral and potentially illegal things, and not submitting to being forced to do unpaid work. Never recovered the ability to trust management.
Unfortunately, after 5 years, unless there is illegality involved, it is unlikely you have any options. Yep...that's rubbish I know.
