A formal warning can only be made in written form, her manager (we'll say "he" as an assumption) may have decided to issue a verbal warning, but he cannot do that without the HR departments backing. It sounds to me like "he" is on very dodgy ground, especially for an accident at work (was she working at height or anything)?
we'll put club allegiances aside for this one I think.....
I can only assume he rang to inform her and any paperwork is flying on its way. I thought it odd, I would have expected an 'informal' chat as to how she was doing etc. She was alighting an employers vehicle and slipped on ice.
After Sunday night, I haven't a clue what your on about !!!!!

Was a Disciplinary hearing held? Was she invited to attend? Was she been given the right to have a representative? Was she been given the right to appeal?

just keep me posted, I am out of the Country from Friday until March 11th but I'll pick up PM's when I can if we can't sort it before then.

Another offer here if she gets no joy. PM me etc, if you need. I can flag.

The only contact her manager should have been making is to ask how she is and where they can send the flowers, chocolates and cards, everything else should come through HR.
