Progressive Discipline: How to Make It Work

25 Nov 2011 00:34 | JHRS (Administrator)
Many employers have created and are using progressive discipline policies that are designed to give both employers and employees a standard of conduct and a set of consequences if that standard isn’t met.

Progressive discipline should provide fairness in the workplace for employees and give employers guidelines by which to handle employee issues. 

The concepts behind progressive discipline seem simple enough, but as any employer can affirm, nothing is as easy as it seems.

Your policy must give you the flexibility to handle discipline on a case-by-case basis while still letting employees know and understand your expectations. As it is in most workplace situations, communication is key.
