DIsciplinary procedure or absence capability route?

Jacqueline Burnett

Hi All,

I'm interested in how other companies deal with absence issues - whether it is via the disciplinary procedure (for short term unrelated absences) or via an absence procedure for related but sporadic absences.

Do you use the disciplinary procedure for unrelated periodic absences?

How do you manage absences which keep occuring for the same reasons 1) for non disability related and 2) for disability related absences.

If you have any policies you could share that would be great.

Thank you in advance.

Jackie

  • Hi Jackie
    Peter C published a fantastic post some years ago on capability vs conduct. suggest you look for it - it may even be in the wiki.

    Basically Capability="Can't" - I don't have the skills, abilities, authorisations to do what is required
    Conduct ="Won't" - I am wilfully behaving in this way even if I have the skills and abikities to do better
