Employment Documentation and Discipline

When addressing disciplinary issues with employees, employers often look back to see that they did not adequately document prior or ongoing issues with the employee, or wish they had a consistent process to follow when disciplining an employee. Documenting employee misconduct or performance issues can support future employment decisions such as termination of the employee, and can minimize concerns for claims such as wrongful termination, discrimination, retaliation or related complaints by the employee or governmental agencies. Following a consistent and proper employee discipline documentation process ensures fair treatment of employees, notifies employees of problems and potential consequences, and also provides an employee with the opportunity to improve. This course is designed to give business owners, managers and human resources directors the tools to investigate employee issues and to established a record of problematic behavior to support a termination or corrective action.
