What happens if one of my staff is subject to disciplinary proceedings of the CII or other professional, statutory or regulatory body?
In the case of CII disciplinary action, they will be notified by us. It is important that they take this seriously and that they attend any disciplinary hearing. The disciplinary panel has a variety of remedies at its disposal. You should be aware that the disciplinary panel can withdraw individual Chartered status and recommend to the CII the withdrawal of corporate Chartered status, where the circumstances warrant this sanction. Where another professional, statutory or regulatory body applies sanctions to an individual member of staff, full details (including the nature of the offence committed and details of the sanction applied) must be notified to the CII immediately. The CII will then consider whether the offence prejudices your firm’s licence to use the corporate Chartered title.
