Discipline Disciplinary grievances will be initiated at the level at which the disputed action was taken.
Discipline Policy A Discipline Policy Committee will be formed upon the request of the Association or the Board of Education. The committee will be comprised of members appointed by the Board and the Association. By the appropriate means determined by the Board, families will be informed of the District's policies regarding student behavior and discipline procedures. The foregoing committees, study groups, or faculty councils shall serve as advisory, consultative and fact-finding bodies only, and the Board shall not be required to adopt any of the recommendations submitted. The Board agrees, however, that the Association and the teachers shall have the right to submit recommendations and views on these subjects.
DISCIPLINE PROCEDURES The Employer agrees to provide the employee with written notification of a disciplinary document that is to be made a part of the employee’s personnel file. In instances where the Employer desires to conduct an investigatory interview with an employee, the employee shall be entitled upon request to have an Association representative present at the interview. A copy of all disciplinary actions involving suspension or discharge will also be provided to the Association, unless the employee requests that the matter be kept confidential.
Discipline Procedure 1. Disciplinary action may be imposed for violation of written rules and regulations as set forth by the Board, incompetence, inefficiency, dishonesty, drunkenness, immoral conduct, insubordination, discourteous treatment of the public, neglect of duty, misfeasance, malfeasance, nonfeasance, any other failure of good behavior, or conviction of a felony. 2. No employee shall be disciplined without first having had the opportunity for a hearing, if the employee so requests, with an OAPSE representative of his/her choice present. The employee shall be given a written statement containing the charges and the time and place of the hearing. The written statement shall notify the employee of his/her rights to OAPSE representation. The employee must be given the opportunity to sign the statement acknowledging receipt of the statement and date received. Under emergency conditions as determined by the supervisor (including, but not limited to, health and/or safety of the employee or other employees; blatant insubordination; or refusal to work), the supervisor may immediately suspend an employee without pay for a period of up to three (3) work days without the formal hearing described above. An opportunity for a formal hearing with the supervisor must be provided within the suspension period. Failure to provide an opportunity for a hearing during the suspension period shall preclude the right of further discipline for the offense causing the initial suspension. Emergency suspensions will not be subject to Section 6 of this Article. 3. Disciplinary action of less than discharge should generally be progressive and corrective in nature. A. Disciplinary actions shall be grievable. This Section shall supersede existing state law governing termination of employment (O.R.C. 3319.081). B. In determining progressive and corrective action, just cause shall be construed and limited to the nature and seriousness of the offense, the effect the alleged conduct has on the Board’s operation, the discipline or lack thereof used in other similar situations known to the Board, and the appropriateness of the proposed penalty in view of the record and length of service of the charged employee. The enumeration of these factors is not intended to preclude either the exercise of good and sound business judgment or to minimize the importance of an employee’s property interest in his job.
STANDARDS OF DISCIPLINE 18.1 In order of severity, the usual types of disciplinary action are as follows: - oral reprimand, - written reprimand - suspension - demotion - termination of employment 18.2 When an employee is required to attend a meeting, the purpose of which is to investigate a disciplinary matter concerning the employee or to render a disciplinary decision concerning the employee, the employee is entitled to have, upon request, a representative of the Association attend the meeting. Where practicable, the employee shall receive a minimum of two (2) day’s notice of such a meeting and shall be informed of the reason for it. 18.3 When an employee is suspended from duty, demoted or terminated due to a disciplinary infraction, the Council shall notify the employee, in writing, of the reason(s) for the suspension, demotion or termination. The Council shall endeavour to provide this written notification at the time of the suspension, demotion or termination. 18.4 When an employee feels aggrieved by the application of any disciplinary action which was applied, or in the employee’s opinion was applied, to the employee by the Council, the employee may present a grievance in accordance with the Grievance Procedure Article of this Agreement. 18.5 Except in the case of an oral reprimand, the Council shall provide an employee with a written record of any disciplinary action taken by the Council against the employee after the date of signing of this Agreement, and such written record shall include the reason for the disciplinary action. 18.6 The Council agrees not to introduce as evidence in a hearing relating to disciplinary action any document from the file of an employee, the existence of which the employee was not aware at the time of filing or within a reasonable period thereafter. 18.7 The Council agrees not to introduce as evidence in an adjudication hearing any document from the file of an employee where the employee was not aware of its existence: 18.7.1 at the time of requesting the services of an adjudicator or 18.7.2 within a period of five (5) consecutive working days after the Council has been informed that the employee has requested the services of an adjudicator, whichever occurs later. 18.8 Notice of disciplinary action which may have been placed on the Council staff file of an employee following the date of signing of this Agreement shall be removed from the Council staff file of the employee after two (2) years have elapsed since the disciplinary action was taken provided that no further disciplinary action has been recorded during the two (2) year period. This two (2) year period will automatically be extended by the length of any period of leave without pay in excess of three (3) months.
Disciplinary Measures 21.01 Any disciplinary measure must be the subject of a written notice addressed to the employee concerned and stating the reasons for the measure. Such notice must be sent simultaneously to the Union. Only those disciplinary measures of which the employee and the Union have been informed in writing can be used as evidence in arbitration and can appear in the employee's personal file. 21.02 The Union may, in the case of any employee who is dismissed, suspended, demoted or given a written warning, file a grievance and, if necessary, submit the case to arbitration, except however in the case of an employee who is dismissed during his/her probation period. 21.03 In all cases of disciplinary measures, the University has the burden of proving that the disciplinary measure was imposed for just and sufficient cause. The arbitrator may confirm or reject the disciplinary measure, or render any other decision that he/she judges equitable under the circumstances. 21.04 In the event that a university representative finds it necessary to summon an employee for disciplinary reasons (written warning, demotion, suspension, or dismissal), the employee has the right to be accompanied by a union representative. The University will inform the employee of his/her right. 21.05 A suspension does not interrupt the continuous service of an employee. 21.06 No disciplinary measure may be imposed later than twenty (20) working days after the date of the incident which gave rise to it or of the date the immediate supervisor became aware of said incident. 21.07 No confession signed by an employee can be used as evidence against her/him in an arbitration, unless it is:
STUDENT DISCIPLINE AND TEACHER PROTECTION A. The Board recognizes its responsibility to give all reasonable support and assistance to teachers with respect to the maintenance of control and discipline in the classroom. Whenever it appears that a particular pupil requires the attention of special counselors, social workers, law enforcement personnel, physicians, or other professional persons, the principal shall be notified. The Board feels that the teacher and the specialists indicated above should work together to improve the case. B. It is recognized that discipline problems are less likely to occur in classes where a high level of student interest is maintained. It is likewise recognized that when discipline problems occur, they may most constructively be dealt with by encouragement, praise and emphasis upon a child’s desirable characteristics. A teacher may use such force as is necessary, according to the law, to protect himself/herself from attack or to prevent injury to another student. C. A teacher may ask the principal to exclude a pupil from class when the grossness of the offense, the persistence of the misbehavior, or the disruptive effect of the violation makes the continued presence of the student in the classroom intolerable. In such cases, the teacher will furnish the principal, as promptly as his/her teaching obligations will allow, full particulars of the incident in writing. D. Procedure for suspension of students from school shall be distributed to students and teachers each year. E. Any case of assault upon a teacher while on duty should be promptly reported to the Board or its designated representative. The Board will provide legal counsel to advise the teacher of his/her rights and obligations with respect to such assault and shall promptly render all reasonable assistance to the teacher in connection with handling of the incident by law enforcement and judicial authorities. F. If any teacher is complained against or sued as a result of any action taken by the teacher while in pursuit of his/her employment, the Board may provide legal counsel and render all necessary assistance to the teacher in his/her defense. G. Time lost by a teacher in connection with any incident mentioned in this Article shall not be charged against the teacher. X. The Board will reimburse teachers for any loss, damages or destruction of clothing or personal property of the teacher while on duty in the school or on school premises in those cases where the school could have reasonably prevented the loss. I. No action shall be taken upon any complaint by a parent of the student directed toward the teacher nor shall any notice thereof be included in said teacher’s personnel file unless such matter is promptly reported in writing to the teacher concerned. J. Teachers shall be expected to exercise reasonable care with respect to the safety of pupils and property, but shall not be individually liable, except in the case of gross neglect of duty, for any damage or loss to person or property.
