Progressive Corrective Action. The principle of progressive corrective action shall ordinarily be followed by the University with respect to corrective actions for any breach of Division or University rule or regulation or violation of statutory provisions of the Ohio Revised Code or other applicable laws by members of the bargaining unit. With respect to minor offenses, progressive action will at least include an oral reprimand before a written reprimand, a written reprimand before any suspension for minor offenses and one or more suspensions will precede removal for minor offenses. However, if the offenses are of a serious nature, the University may deviate from progressive corrective action. Copies of all reprimands or notices of suspension or dismissal will be promptly given to the member and copies of suspensions or removal orders will be given to the Grievance Representative selected by the member.
