Establishing Cause: Extenuating Circumstances That Would Mitigate Discipline Level or Termination

 

There are exceptions to almost every rule.

When there is a violation of a rule, it is important that you take the opportunity to speak with the employee to see what caused the workplace violation. Oftentimes, there may be a reason for the incident that either mitigates the punishment required or eliminates it altogether. Some workplace violations may even be caused by an employee’s protected status or characteristic. This video reviews the importance of making sure your leaders are checking to see if there are extenuating circumstances when dealing with discipling or termination.
