Level 1 - Verbal Warning
This level will provide an opportunity for the supervisor and the employee to address a
violation of standards at an early stage. Specific actions needed to correct the problem
and a time frame within which to accomplish them will be defined.
While this early intervention is considered a verbal warning the supervisor should maintain
his own record of when the discussion took place and any points of significance.
Level 4 - Suspension
In cases of serious infractions or when an employee has committed a series of infractions
and been previously disciplined, a suspension will be issued.
The length of the suspension will depend upon the seriousness of the infraction. The
suspension will normally range in duration from 1 day to 2 weeks.

Level 5 - Discharge
This action will be taken if all previous attempts to help an employee conform to acceptable
standards fail or if the infraction is of such a magnitude that discharge is the required
response.
The employee will be removed from the workplace in a manner which is respectful of the
employee but ensures security of other employees as well as equipment and processes.
If necessary, the employee may be suspended indefinitely pending an investigation to
determine the appropriate level of discipline. The employee will be advised of
termination of employment.
