Employee discipline is a corrective process designed to enforce workplace rules, correct unacceptable behavior, and improve performance. Its key responsibilities include maintaining clear and fair expectations, investigating infractions objectively, applying progressive discipline consistently, ensuring legal compliance, and documenting all actions to protect both the employee and the organization.
