What are Disciplinary and Dismissal Procedures?
These are the formal procedures put in place in an organisation to control and manage non-performance or inappropriate behaviour in the workplace. Ideally, before any disciplinary action is considered, the employee has received regular, informal coaching from the employer in relation to any performance or behavioural difficulties. The purpose of informal coaching being, to provide the necessary opportunities and support to enable the employee to remedy any performance/behavioural deficits, and hopefully avert the need for future formal intervention.
