Topic: Disciplinary procedure
Document Owner: National human resources
National Group: National employee relations
Effective From: 01 January 2007
To ensure all employees adhere to the required standards by making them aware of any shortcomings and identifying how the necessary improvements can be achieved.

The delivery of a high quality health service requires all employees to adhere to high standards of work performance, conduct and attendance. The key objective is to assist the employee to maintain the required standards, rather than impose penalties. Line managers are responsible for making employees aware of the standards of attendance, work and conduct expected from them and for dealing with shortcomings promptly and fairly.
