Discipline
The Discipline Policy and Procedure is designed to encourage managers to provide support and guidance to staff to help maintain levels of conduct in the workplace.
The sections on informal action enable managers to provide guidance to staff at the earliest opportunity to help address areas of improvement through interactive dialogue.
Informal action should be taken in the first instance to correct behaviour where possible. This may also involve setting appropriate standards of behaviour where conduct may have fallen short of the required expectations.
Staff are asked to familiarise themselves with the contents of the procedure and seek advice and clarification from line managers where necessary.
