Was HR involved in that meeting? Given it's a major supermarket you'd assume they should be. If I was even tempted to give a written warning due to illness there is no way I would proceed without their involvement
As already mentioned, diabetes would fall under the disability protected characteristic under under the equality act 2010, whether it applies for time off work into being discriminated against maybe... Not a lawyer, you need proper advice
Did you have someone else in that meeting with you? That note makes it sound like you have admitted liability regarding diet. Not saying you did by the way, just that's how it is worded.
Thinking a union thing too
Hey, it was just me and two other managers. They asked me why my blood glucose and keytones were high and I said could be anything from not giving enough insulin to stress.
