An effective Progressive Discipline Policy involves multiple steps to complete the process properly. What should be the goals of your company's progressive discipline policy?
- Correct undesirable conduct rather than punish
- Communicate problem issues directly and professionally
- Invite employees to participate in the problem-solving process
- Document that an effort was made to correct the employee’s conduct before terminating
- Demonstrate there are no other alternatives but termination if the employee does not improve or correct performance or behavior
