Have you ever had an accident inside or outside of work?

Have you ever been hospitalised?

Have you ever had surgery?

Yes to all three, but WTF it has to do with a relatively straightforward engineering job I’ve no idea. Whether I get a call back or not I’m going to ask WTF business it is of theirs.

These question are normal grouped along with “how many days off sick in the last 3/5year” let’s face Iam not going to tell you the truth knowing full well that they can’t access my records without my permission and any employer that asked I wouldn’t be working for

I thought that, but there is a travel requirement with the role so wondered if it was for insurance purposes. And it was very specific, accidents and hospitalisation, not sickies.

Is medical history something you could illegally discriminated against because? It could be an illness/disability rather than just clumsy in my case!

Can’d decide if I want to burn my bridges with an angry letter or not.
