DISCIPLINE & DISCIPLINARY PROCEDURES AT WORKPLACE (ONLINE OPEN SEMINAR)

Establishing a disciplined work environment, dealing with indiscipline effectively and setting up policies and procedures to ensure that companies follow best practices and comply with legal requirements in disciplinary matters is very crucial in today’s corporate world. This is because research has shown that there is a nexus linking a disciplined workforce, sustainable productivity and increased profitability.

While the internal disciplinary procedures of the individual company may vary depending on a number of factors including size and the company structure, the legal requirements for disciplinary matters are the same. The various disciplinary measures often invoked at the workplace by the management such as queries, suspension, termination and dismissal do have legal procedural requirements & implications. This poses challenges to today’s HR Managers in particular and employers of labour in general. Lack of professionally designed policies on discipline and disciplinary procedures or the adoption of wrong procedures in disciplinary matters, at the very best creates employee relations problems, and at the very worst exposes the company to avoidable law suits liabilities including the attendant reputational risks.

It is also important that the members of the Disciplinary Committees understand the basic fundamentals of disciplinary proceedings including the legal requirements, particularly as established by caselaws over the years in Nigeria.

Participants will be exposed to the best practices in establishing a culture of discipline at workplace including the various legal requirements in disciplinary matters. Our approach shall be interactive and case studies based.
