Alternative and Progressive Discipline. Progressive discipline means using the least severe action which, in the Department's judgment, will correct the employee's misconduct. Progressive discipline does not preclude the exercise of discretion by the Department in determining appropriate action. The Department will apply progressive discipline when it determines that progressive discipline will correct the misconduct. The Department and the Union support the use of alternative approaches to traditional disciplinary actions in certain circumstances. However, alternative discipline will be used only when agreed upon as appropriate by the Department and the employee. If the employee is represented by the Union, the Union must sign off on all alternative discipline. If the employee is not represented by the Union any alternative discipline must comply with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. Alternative discipline is defined as any form of action taken to correct behavior other than the traditional disciplinary methods. Alternative discipline provides the opportunity to address employee misconduct in a more positive manner by offering employees options to traditional discipline; examples, include but are not limited to, unpaid off-duty community service, a paper suspension or donation of annual leave to a leave transfer recipient. An employee, or his her union representative, may suggest alternative discipline to the deciding official during his or her oral and written response as full settlement of the pending action.
