![]() Repeated Violations Trigger Disciplinary Progression Keep in mind that you may be required to demonstrate that the discipline was meted out in a fair manner that was consistent with your own policies so that any worker could reasonably expect to be terminated under similar circumstances. Your affirmative efforts to improve your employee's performance must have been willfully rebuffed despite repeated warnings so that you, as a reasonable employer, were left with no choice other than termination. The traditional paradigm is used to prove, via documentation, that you made a good-faith effort to lead the employee down the right path. This is the second in a three-part series on progressive discipline and its legal considerations. This article is excerpted from Chapter 1 of 101 Sample Write-Ups for Documenting Employee Performance Problems: A Guide to Progressive Discipline & Termination, Third Edition (Amacom/SHRM, 2017 ), written by Paul Falcone.
