Like everyone's said it's all down to what's in your contract... and bear in mind you cannot amend a written contract with a verbal one, so what they've said since your contract counts for nothing if it contradicts the contract. What does your contract say about sick leave?

If they did sack you, you will only be able to claim unfair dismissal if you've worked there for two years or more, with certain exceptions.

Lack of sleep is serious. They use it as torture.

If you have a doctor's note and you've let them know in plenty of time (whatever your contract says about notification of sickness), and you're entitled to paid sick leave, I find it hard to believe they'd sack you. But like I said, if you've not worked there for two years you can't claim unfair dismissal if they did.

Not if you've not been there two years.
