Document background
A Disciplinary Notice serves as a crucial document in the formal disciplinary process under English and Welsh employment law. It should be issued when an employee's conduct, performance, or behavior requires formal addressing through disciplinary procedures. The notice must conform to the ACAS Code of Practice and UK employment legislation, ensuring fair treatment and due process. When issuing a Disciplinary Notice, employers must clearly state the allegations, provide evidence, outline the hearing process, and inform employees of their statutory rights. This document forms part of the official employment record and may be crucial in potential employment tribunal proceedings.
