Common Disciplinary Questions

Disciplinary procedure advice from experts

Once you have tried to solve a conduct issue via informal chats, or a performance issue with a training or development plan, you may require a formal disciplinary procedure as the next step. Disciplinary may be needed for issues with capability, or misconduct that has taken place either inside or outside the workplace.

In any disciplinary situation, you must have followed the correct procedure in order to avoid a tribunal claim later down the line. Some employers have a separate process for misconduct and capability, but an employer must always deal with either issue fairly.

If you employ or manage staff and you believe one of your employees requires a formal disciplinary, speak to Employer Advice for bespoke advice on how to handle the situation, tailored to business owners and employers.

Check out some of the questions we regularly receive:

  • Do I have to put misconduct or performance issues in writing before a disciplinary?
  • What is a disciplinary?
  • Can my employee bring a companion to a disciplinary hearing?
  • What do I need to provide as evidence in a disciplinary with my employee?
  • Do I need to take minutes for a disciplinary hearing?
  • Is there a letter template for giving an employee notice of a disciplinary meeting?
