If you work in an Amazon fulfilment centre, you'll know how demanding the job is physically. Injuries, musculoskeletal strain, exhaustion, and stress are common — and when you need time off, you need a sick note quickly so your absence is properly documented.

THE CHALLENGE FOR WAREHOUSE WORKERS

Most NHS GP surgeries offer appointments during working hours — which often clash with shift patterns. If you work early mornings, nights, or weekend shifts, getting to a GP when you're actually available can feel almost impossible.

Dr Sick solves this. We're available 7 days a week and our online consultation takes less than 10 minutes — from your phone, before or after your shift, or from home when you're unwell.

COMMON CONDITIONS WE ISSUE SICK NOTES FOR

Our team regularly issues fit notes for conditions common among warehouse and fulfilment centre workers, including:

● Repetitive strain injury (RSI) of the wrists, hands, and arms

● Back and shoulder pain from lifting

● Knee and joint pain

● Stress and anxiety (including work-related stress)

● Exhaustion and fatigue

● General illness: flu, infections, gastroenteritis

● Mental health conditions

HOW IT WORKS

Your fit note arrives by email within 2 hours

You can forward it directly to Amazon HR or your line manager from your phone.

MODIFIED DUTIES

If you're not completely unfit for work but need adjustments — lighter duties, no heavy lifting, reduced hours — our doctors can reflect this in your fit note. This can actually support a faster, safer return to work.
