Disciplinary Guidelines and Grievance Resolution

Disciplinary Guidelines

Disciplinary actions are determined on case-by-case basis, based on the severity and impact of performance or behavioral issues. The University prioritizes correcting issues before considering termination, which is reserved for serious cases. Typically, discipline follows four steps:

• Verbal warning
• Written warning
• Final written warning
• Termination

The University reserves the right to skip steps or proceed directly to termination if the circumstances warrant it. In some cases, suspension without pay may also be considered an appropriate disciplinary measure.
