Employee Warning Letter

Your employee warning letter is really the one document
where it is crucial to "Get it in writing!"

Certain offences may warrant instant dismissal but in most cases Labor Law will require that a employee warning letter be issued first.

Typical procedure will be for a first, second, third and final warning to be issued for statutory offences under your applicable labor law or terms of employment contract.

Third and final warnings may be issued simultaneously - (verify with your specific labor laws) - after which a disciplinary hearing will be held and a decision made on an employee's status. Getting it in writing is most important for the employer's case should a dispute arise.

A warning letter may generally be valid for six months and should be kept in the employee's file with a copy given to the employee.

Labor Law varies in different states and countries and as such you must ensure that the correct process is being followed when dealing with staff disciplinary issues.
