More About This Episode:
Disciplinary policy is an essential aspect of every organization’s cultural defense. However, the complexity of unique situations can easily outpace what is written down. E&C and HR officers face the daunting challenge of developing policies and procedures that ensure that misconduct is proportionately punished in every situation, while also protecting the trust that they have built with their workforce. Additionally, instances of misconduct can demand the attention of more senior members of leadership, such as the CCO. In this webinar, attendees will learn about the best practices for disciplinary policies, how to coordinate disciplinary action with senior leadership, and how to ensure that disciplinary policies and their execution reinforce the larger values and mission of their organization.
