  • This letter forms part of a disciplinary procedure when an employee’s conduct is unsatisfactory. This letter would normally be the fourth stage in a five stage disciplinary process. Usually the disciplinary process is: informal verbal warning, formal verbal warning (Verbal Warning Confirmation Letter (misconduct)), first written warning (First Warning Letter (misconduct)), final written warning and then potentially summary dismissal. This letter is used when an employee has either failed to improve following the earlier stages of the disciplinary process, or if they have behaved in such a way that means that the earlier stages of disciplinary action are disproportionate when compared to their behaviour. This letter is essentially a final warning to the employee that if they fail to correct their behaviour, then further disciplinary action and possibly dismissal may follow.
  • To be used as part of a company’s disciplinary process. In the event that informal verbal warnings about an employee’s conduct have failed to correct it, a company would escalate the matter to the first written warning stage. This is the first stage of formal disciplinary action. It is normal for a company to issue a first written warning, then a final written warning then move to dismissal. In some cases an employee’s actions may be so serious that informal action is not appropriate and it may be deemed suitable to move straight to a written warning.
