Good luck. I would just walk in there in the morning and say "before we start can I just ask why I am being asked to attend a meeting on sickness levels, which has been triggered by pregnancy related sickness? It's just that according to law, pregnancy related sickness cannot be used for this purpose" That might make them rethink!

If you want to read up on what is what to prepare yourself, this is a great place to start http://www.businesslink.gov.uk/bdotg/action/layer?topicId=1080898065


Pregnancy–related sickness should be recorded separately from other kinds of illness. You should not count pregnancy-related sickness towards an employee’s total sickness record. You should not use pregnancy-related sickness absence as a reason for disciplinary action or when selecting for redundancy or for any other detrimental purpose.

No, they're more likely to brick it in case you try and raise a grievance!
