Nobody can answer that for certain.

Different employers may place wildly differing degrees of importance on something like that. It will also depend on how easy or difficult it would be for them to find somebody else with similar skills but less "baggage".

I guess it would depend on the reasons for the disciplinaries. If they were all to do with sickness absence due to his diabetes, and that is now under control, then it may have no effect. On the other hand, if they were all to do with performance they could be viewed differently.
