What are Disciplinary Proceedings?

When an employer believes an employee has displayed poor performance or misconduct, disciplinary proceedings occur. This formal process allows for an opportunity to settle disputes fairly. 

The Typical Disciplinary Process

Establish the facts

The employer must source evidence before beginning disciplinary action.

Notify the employee

Should there be sufficient evidence and grounds for disciplinary action, employees must be notified in writing about the allegation, evidence, and potential outcomes of the meeting.

Arrange a hearing

Employees will have the chance to respond to the allegations and challenge them if needed. 

Decide on outcome

Once the meeting concludes, a decision regarding the next course of action will be made.

Allow for appeal

Employees must be allowed to appeal.
