Maintaining Discipline in the Workplace

Maintaining Discipline is a line function, therefore, managers have the important role of establishing and implementing rules pertaining to employee conduct, performance, and responsibilities so that all personnel can conduct themselves according to certain rules of good behavior and good conduct. The purpose of these rules is not to restrict the rights of anyone, but rather to help people work together harmoniously according to the standards the company established for efficient delivery of results Reasonable rules concerning personal conduct of employees are necessary if the facility is to function safely and effectively. Failure of the manager to communicate the company's rules or their failure to act on violations can have seriously adverse effect on people's perception of the company's seriousness to maintain a professional culture. This training module is designed to equip managers/supervisors to effectively communicate the company's rule and appropriately handle deviations without violating the rights of the employees. This workshop also aims to equip them with skills necessary for discussing disciplinary actions to ensure that reason for the corrective action is clear to the employee and that needed future behavioral improvements are achieved.
