I feel I can help you. However your question is incoherent, ambiguous and lacks detail.
Add details and I will help you.

Your employer's legal representative is correct that an employer can skip over verbal warnings and the three written warnings. Actually, if the employer has classified your violation as serious, you could have been terminated on the spot. Legally the employer does NOT need to comply with the rules in the employee manual or policy manual. However, any non-compliance by the employer can help you if you file a complaint against them. Remember that when talking to the employer's attorney he/she represents the employer, NOT YOU. Anything you say to that person can and will be used against you. The violation itself, sexual harassment, can be anything as defined by the employer. Employers have legally considered certain conversations (no touching) between male and female as sexual harassment. So, you really cannot fight that. Some employers believe that any contact between male and female or anything that could possibly be percieved as having something to do with sex must be stopped. Basically the employer is scared that someone, anyone will find something sexual going on and sue them. (Obviously their corporate attorney is driving this.) If you want to keep your job, your only option is to say "sorry, won't happen again". Then stop the playing around with your friends at work. What that means to you is that you go to work, do your job, and stop being friendly to those of the opposite sex. NEVER touch anyone of the opposite sex, other than shaking hands. This means no hugging when the person needs a hug, no pats on the back and no sitting in laps. As for the telling on other employees, you have opened a real can of worms by even mentioning this to your employer. You may get in trouble with the employer if you now refuse to give them the names of these employees. When they ask you about this again you can say you just mis-spoke because you were so upset at getting a final written warning and see if that works. If the employer says give me the names or you are fired for insubordination (which would be legal) you will need to give the employer the names. If your employer terminates you, you may be able to file a EEOC complaint against him if you are in a protected class against discrimination (age, sex, race, ethnic origin, etc) look at www.eeoc.gov. Good luck.

You have received one or not?
"HAVING RECEIVED A FINAL WRITTEN WARNING FROM WORK"
then you say "I still havent had this sent formally from my Head Office vis mail or verbal"
Your writing is on the wall,say goodbye to your job,start looking for another.

You don't work for Sainsbury's do you?
(I had a similar dilemma)
Well, if you say that you "received a final written warning" then that's it. You don't need anything else. You "know" where you stand....next time you will get a 'Dismissal'..(so don't mess up again)
Chaz is right, start sending out CVs elsewhere!

Doesn't sound good.
If they gave you written warnings, I am sure you had verbals too...Ask your human resources rep. Often they have suspension without pay, or even termination afterwards.
Unless you have a wealthy spouse, I'd keep my nose clean

You must have done some pretty bad stuff to get a final written warning. You should consider yourself lucky to still have a job. Sort yourself out.

You need to speak to whomever looks after personnel issues at your place of work. Your line manager would not get that involved with the paperwork side of things.

you get two verbal warnings and one written and final warning, it will be sent to you in the post and if you get fired before you have had any written notification of your final warning they cant do that and you can get them in the ****
