Invitation to a formal disciplinary hearing (final written warning previously issued)

The formal disciplinary process includes both verbal and written warnings.

The aim being to formally address inappropriate behaviour or conduct, and record any formal discussions held between an employee and their supervisor or manager.

This standard letter ensures managers adhere to the DDP regulations when inviting employees to a formal disciplinary hearing by:

• inviting an employee to a meeting
• confirming the hearing details
• itemising the allegations
• advising the right to be accompanied
• informing persons who will be present at the hearing

This letter should be used to invite an employee to a formal disciplinary hearing if they have previously been given a final written warning (that is still current) and the employee could be dismissed.
