Employee Memo - Discipline policy
30 November 2007In an effort to streamline the discipline process, management has drawn up a formal policy that will go into effect immediately. The policy is based on demerits, accumulation of which will determine what level of punishment is required.
Demerits will be tallied one at a time, except in extreme situations. Each demerit will stay on record for thirty days. Demerits may be removed by the employee’s supervisor if the employee performs in a sufficiently productive and beneficial manner. Demerits cannot be removed by a supervisor not in the direct chain of command above a given employee.
Punishments for each subsequent demerit will be as follows:
1 demerits – A warning will be issued. Warnings will only be issued if the employee’s demerit count is at zero before receiving the new demerit.
2 demerits – The employee must write a 300 word essay expressing why they were wrong. They will also include a detailed apology to the company, their supervisor, and anyone else whom may have been effective by their transgression.
3 demerits – The employee will sit on time out stool located in their break room. The amount of time will be determined by their supervisor, not to exceed four hours, and more than ten minutes. Time on the stool will count against breaks.
4 demerits – Employee must stay after work for detention. Employee’s who have reached detention status will be flagged by security and will not be permitted to leave until detention is completed.
5 demerits – Employee will immediately report to Cletus Heddrick for flogging.
6 demerits – If employee reaches six demerits, they will be deemed unsuitable and their employment will be terminated. They will also forfeit unemployment compensation, and any future paychecks.
Your cooperation on this matter will be appreciated. If you have any questions about the new policy, feel free to ask your supervisor.
Regards,
Management
