Employee Discipline Policies

We counsel our clients on their ability to discipline employees for violating company policies. However, various legal restrictions may protect certain employees from being disciplined, or govern the manner in which the discipline is carried out. We advise our clients on ideal disciplinary practices that protect the rights of employers, while avoiding violating laws regarding discrimination, whistleblower protection, retaliation, and union activity.
