Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The discipline of employees must be documented and recorded for future reference. In this scenario, the manager has not provided any documented evidence of prior warnings or discussions with Caileen about her tardiness. Therefore, docking Caileen's pay without any evidence of prior warning violates the "document discipline" rule for effective discipline.
