Disciplinary Procedure

A disciplinary procedure is a formal process used by organizations to address employee behavior that violates company policies or standards. It typically involves several steps, including an investigation to gather facts, a hearing to allow the employee to respond to allegations, and a decision on whether a policy violation occurred and what disciplinary action is appropriate. Actions can range from a warning to suspension or termination. Additionally, the procedure often includes an appeal process, enabling the employee to contest the decision if they believe it was unjust.
