Disciplinary Action and Performance Evaluations
Sound disciplinary practices protect your organization from expensive lawsuits that can include harassment, discrimination, wrongful termination and a variety of other charges. Sexual harassment claims now place individuals at personal risk in addition to their employers. Unbiased investigation practices are critical to limit legal exposure. Employers must accurately document deficient performance or behavioral problems to substantiate disciplinary action. Employee performance evaluations should be performed on a yearly basis and provide the foundation for disciplinary action. Properly training your supervisors and managers can dramatically reduce your legal exposure and minimize personal liability. Orion Risk Management will review your existing procedures and assist you in the development of your disciplinary practices that will also support your corporate philosophy. The review will include:
- Work Improvement Plans
- Disciplinary Procedures
- Grievances
- Sexual Harassment Investigation Procedures
- Investigations Involving Employee Misconduct (other than sexual harassment)
- Performance Evaluations
- Termination Procedures
