Just a quick question. My company states that there is to be no candy, gum ect while we are at work. My manager seems to think that has to apply for a diabetic. She refuses to allow us diabetics (both of us are on insulin) to have a hard candy if our sugar happens to fall.

Also, she refuses to let us up to get a drink from the break room in that case. If we get caught with a hard candy we get written up, even if we have proof our sugar is low. We even have doctors note stating we are type one and may need to have a piece of hard candy or may need to get a soda.

Basically her reply was "this is company policy if you don't like it you can go else where" Is this illegal? Can I contact anyone over this. I really do like my job and would hate to see me get fired or have to find a new job over a piece of hard candy!
