Disciplinary action refers to the measures taken by an organization to address inappropriate behavior or violations of rules by employees. This process aims to correct behavior, ensure a safe work environment, and maintain organizational standards. Common forms of disciplinary action include verbal warnings, written reprimands, suspension, and termination. The specific steps and severity of disciplinary action often depend on the nature of the offense and the organization's policies. Organizations typically follow a structured process, which may involve an investigation and documentation to ensure fairness and transparency. This helps protect the rights of both the employee and the organization.
