Only information directly related to the action taken will be presented during the hearing, and may include the past disciplinary history of the employee. Presentation of unrelated issues or issues involving other employees will not be allowed.

A court reporter or stenographer may be present throughout the hearing and, if so, a written record of the proceedings will be made. A copy of the written record will be maintained in the employee’s permanent personnel file. The hearing panel will deliberate and make a decision within five business days from the date of the hearing upholding the disciplinary action taken, rescinding the action, modifying or amending the action or reducing the severity of the discipline, provided the disciplinary action must be sustained if a reasonable person could have taken the same disciplinary action against the employee. The final decision will be communicated in writing to all parties involved within five business days of the appeal hearing.
