Notice of Intent When the President or representative has reason to believe that a suspension or termination should be imposed, the President or representative shall provide the employee with a written notice of the proposed action and the reasons therefor. Such notice shall be sent certified mail, return receipt requested, or delivered in person with written documentation of receipt obtained. The employee shall be given ten (10) days in which to respond in writing to the President or representative before the proposed action is taken. The President or representative then may issue a notice of disciplinary action under Article 16.4.below. The employee has a right to union representation during investigatory questioning that may reasonably be expected to result in disciplinary action. If the President or representative does not issue a notice of disciplinary action, the notice of proposed disciplinary action shall not be retained in the employee's evaluation file.
Notice of Material Breach and Intent to Exclude The parties agree that a material breach of this IA by Xxxxx constitutes an independent basis for Xxxxx’x exclusion from participation in the Federal health care programs. The length of the exclusion shall be in the OIG’s discretion, but not more than three years per material breach. Upon a determination by OIG that Xxxxx has materially breached this IA and that exclusion is the appropriate remedy, OIG shall notify Xxxxx of: (a) Xxxxx’x material breach; and (b) OIG’s intent to exercise its contractual right to impose exclusion. (This notification shall be referred to as the “Notice of Material Breach and Intent to Exclude.”)
Right to Respond Employees will be given a copy of any and all material that may be used against them in a disciplinary action at the time that it is placed in the file. Explanatory rebuttal statements can be attached to the material housed in the file provided such statement is made within ten (10) working days after the employee receives the material. Any reference to allegations that are investigated and determined to be unfounded shall be removed from an employee’s file.
