In order to operate effectively and efficiently, businesses need to have a clear set of performance standards and conduct that are reinforced by company rules and procedures. Policies and Procedures should be clear, concise and fair. Disciplinary procedures enable you to ensure that employees follow these rules, policies and procedures and enable you, as an employer, to ensure that all breaches of theseare dealt with fairly and consistently across the business.
A well written counselling and disciplinary procedurethat is used effectively, not only should encourage fairness in the workplace but also ensure the business minimises the potential of external action being taken by employees and/or provides evidence of a fair and robust procedure has been undertaken when cases are escalated.
