Employee Notice Of Discipline Page 2

Strive to provide disciplinary action to be positive and corrective in nature, whenever possible. The severity of

the discipline administered shall be no greater than necessary to achieve the desired result.

Types of disciplinary action:

Oral Reprimand – An oral discussion with the employee during which the supervisor, program coordinator, or

director notifies him/her of the nature of the violation, the corrective action necessary, and the consequences of

future violations, and obtains the employee’s commitment to corrective action. An oral reprimand is to be

documented.

Written Reprimand – A written reprimand is written notification to the employee concerning unacceptable

performance or conduct, the corrective action necessary, the consequences of failure to bring about corrective

action. This is usually the second step for a minor violation.

Suspension – Suspension is a written notice given by the Program Coordinator/Director to the employee

suspending him/her for up to three days per infraction without pay. This is usually the third step involving a

minor infraction, the second step for a more serious offense, and the first step for an even more serious offense.

Sent Home without Pay – A supervisor has the ability to send an employee home immediately without pay for

the remaining shift due to inappropriate actions.

Termination – Termination is taken by the Program Coordinator/Director with board approval to terminate an

employee’s employment with the district. A recommendation for termination is usually the fourth step

involving offenses of a minor nature, the third or second step in more serious offenses, and the first step in

flagrant violations.
