1 DISCIPLINARY PROCEDURE SCOPE The Greengate Housing Co-operative (GHC) Disciplinary Procedure will be used only when necessary and as a last resort. Where possible, informal and/or formal counselling or other good management practice will be used to resolve matters prior to any disciplinary action being taken. The procedure is intended to be positive rather than punitive but takes cognisance of the fact that sanctions may have to be applied in some circumstances. An employee can discuss any part of this policy with their Union Representative or their Line Manager. They can help clarify an employees rights as well as give guidance and support where it may be needed. Every individual has the right to representation at any point during the disciplinary process. SUSPENSION Suspension is not disciplinary action. The purpose of suspension is manifold and can be used when it is necessary to remove a member of staff from the workplace pending an investigation for example, to allow time for a 'cooling down period' for both parties, for their own or others protection, to prevent them influencing or being influenced by others or to prevent possible interference with evidence. Only the Manager in charge of that individual, at that time or their superior, have the authority to suspend an individual. An employee suspended from duty will receive written confirmation within three days of: the reason for the suspension the date and time from which the suspension will operate. the timescale of the ongoing investigation. the right of appeal to the immediate manager of the suspending manager should the suspension last more than 7 days COUNSELLING Counselling is an attempt to correct a situation and prevent it from getting worse without having to use the disciplinary procedure. Where improvement is required, the employee must be given clear guidelines as to: what is expected in terms of improving shortcomings in conduct or performance the time scales for improvement when this will be reviewed the employee must also be told, where appropriate, that failure to improve may result in formal disciplinary action. A record of the counselling should be given to the employee and a copy retained in their personnel file. It is imperative that any counselling should be followed up and improvements recognised and recorded. Once the counselling objectives have been met, any record of the counselling will be removed from the employees file. Greengate Housing Co-operative Page 1 of 6
2 If during counselling it becomes clear that the matter is more serious, then the discussion should be adjourned, and pursued under the formal disciplinary procedure. PROCEDURE FOR FORMAL INVESTIGATION 1. Formal investigations should be carried out by the most appropriate manager who is not directly involved with the incident being investigated. This manager may involve others to assist with the investigation process. All the relevant facts should be gathered promptly as soon as is practicable after the incident. Statements should be taken from witnesses at the earliest opportunity. Any physical evidence should be preserved and/or photographed if reasonable to do so. 2. A report should be prepared which outlines the facts of the case. This should be submitted to the appropriate senior manager / Director who will decide whether further action is required. Where appropriate, this report may be made available to the individual and their representative. 3. In most circumstances where misconduct or serious misconduct is suspected, it will be appropriate to set up an investigatory hearing. This would be chaired by the appropriate Senior Manager / Director, who would be accompanied by another manager. The investigating manager would be asked to present his/her findings in the presence of the employee who has been investigated. Witnesses should be called at this stage, and the employee (or their representative) allowed to question these witnesses. The employee has a right of representation at this hearing. 4. Following the full presentation of the facts, and the opportunity afforded to the employee to state his side of the case, the hearing should be adjourned, and everyone would leave the room except the senior manager / Director hearing the case, and the other manager. They would discuss the case and decide which of the following option was appropriate: take no further action against the employee recommend counselling for the employee proceed to a disciplinary hearing 5. All parties should be brought back, and informed as to which option has been chosen. Should the decision be taken to proceed to a disciplinary hearing, then this may follow on immediately from the investigatory hearing if the following criteria have been met: the employee has been informed by letter that the investigation may turn into a disciplinary hearing, and that he has the right of representation he has been told in advance what the nature of the complaint is, and had time to consult with a representative all the facts have been produced at the investigatory hearing, and the manager / Director is in a position to decide on disciplinary action. the manager should inform the employee and their representative that the hearing would now become a formal disciplinary hearing, and invite them to say anything further in relation to the case. 6. It may be appropriate at this point to adjourn proceedings, whilst necessary arrangements are made for a representative to attend the hearing at the request of the employee.

The subject of the discipline may also request that the disciplinary action continue. WARNINGS Examples of Minor Misconduct Below are listed examples of misconduct which may warrant either a Verbal Warning or a First Written Warning. It is stressed however that this list is not exhaustive and that on all occasions a full and proper investigation must take place prior to the issue of a warning.

First Written Warning A First Written Warning is appropriate when : a verbal warning has not been heeded and the misconduct is either repeated or performance has not improved as previously agreed. an offence is of a more serious nature for which a written warning is more appropriate. the recurrence or accumulation of an offence/offences, if left, will lead to more severe disciplinary action. Examples of Gross Misconduct Listed below are examples of misconduct which may be considered to be Gross Misconduct and may warrant a Final Warning, Demotion or Dismissal. It is stressed however that this list is not exhaustive and that on all occasions a full and proper investigation must take place prior to the issuing of a Final Warning, Demotion or Dismissal.

Final Written Warning A Final Written Warning is appropriate when : an employee's offence is of a serious nature falling just short of one justifying dismissal. an employee persists in the misconduct which previously warranted a lesser warning. Downgrading or Transfer to another Post This action is appropriate when : previous attempts, via the disciplinary procedure, to rectify a problem have failed and this is a final attempt to solve a problem without having to dismiss an employee. an employee is considered by the Manager of the department to be incompetent or otherwise unfit to fulfil the duties for which he is employed but where dismissal is not thought to be appropriate. Dismissal Dismissal is appropriate when an employee's behaviour is considered to be Gross Misconduct. an employees misconduct has persisted, exhausting all other lines of disciplinary procedure. Time Scales for the expiry of Warnings Warnings issued to employees shall be deemed to have expired after the following periods of time. Verbal Warnings: 6 months First Written Warnings: 12 months Greengate Housing Co-operative Page 4 of 6

A copy of the warning and any supporting documentation must be attached to the individuals personnel file. The employee must also receive a copy of the warning which in the case of any written warning will be sent to their home address by recorded delivery if not handed to them in person. In the case of a final written warning, reference must be made to the fact that any further misconduct will lead to dismissal, and that the employee has the right of appeal, and to who they can make that appeal. The letter confirming dismissal will contain the following information: The reason for dismissal and any administrative matter arising from the termination of their employment. The employees right of appeal and to whom they should make that appeal APPEALS Every employee has the right to appeal against the outcome of a disciplinary hearing.

The letter of appeal may be constructed by the employee or their representative. The letter should contain the grounds for appeal and should be lodged within 10 days of receipt of the warning / dismissal letter. An appeal will be arranged within 20 working days of receipt of the appeal letter. Greengate Housing Co-operative Page 5 of 6
6 Appeals against Verbal and First Warnings In the case of verbal and first warnings, the appeal will be heard by the manager next in line to the one who issued the warning. Appeals against Downgrading, Final Warnings and Dismissal The hearing and determining of appeals against final warnings and dismissal will be heard by the appropriate Director or Chief Executive. They may also involve another senior manager / Director not previously involved with the case. When dealing with an appeal against a Final Warning or Dismissal written statements of case may be submitted no later than 2 days prior to the date of Appeal Hearing. No additional written evidence will be admitted by the Appeal Committee on the date of the Hearing. Witnesses may be required by either party at an appeal hearing, dependent upon the circumstances and nature of the case. However, there is no specific obligation on either party to produce a witness. Either party must give 5 days prior notice that they intend to call specific persons involved or associated with the case under consideration. It is the responsibility of the management representative and for the appellant to each arrange for the availability and attendance of any witness they wish to call.
