Purpose of Discipline Sample Clauses

Purpose of DisciplineBoth parties to this Collective Agreement recognize the value of progressive discipline in correcting the behaviour of an Employee. Discipline shall be appropriate to the behaviour and individual circumstances of the Employee. However, this does not preclude the College, where the Employee’s behaviour so warrants, from imposing a suspension with or without loss of salary or discharge from employment as the first step in the disciplinary process.
Purpose of Discipline. The purpose of disciplinary action is not to punish employees but to impress on each employee the seriousness of his/her actions and to correct the employee’s behavior. Disciplinary action shall be scheduled within twenty- one (21) calendar days after knowledge by the Employer. In the event extenuating circumstances arise that delay disciplinary action, the Employer shall notify the Union.
