Short Explanation reference employment gap:
Due to ill health I had to cease working in July 2015 Several Issues: High Blood Pressure - Overweight - Blocked Bowl I was given several different types of medications which were giving me issues at the time. Since the end of last year, I have lost weight and exercise daily at the gym. My blood pressure is now normal, I was operated on for a blocked bowl and everything, health wise is in good order and normal.
Consequently, I am fit and ready to return to work for 40/60 hours a week. Please look at my resume and advise if you would like me to interview with you. Looking forward to the opportunity of meeting you. Sincerely,
