Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The principle of Just Cause in discipline requires that disciplinary action should only be taken when there is sufficient evidence that the employee has engaged in wrongdoing or violated company policies. In this case, it appears that James was disciplined without sufficient justification, while another employee who has missed more deadlines was not disciplined. This suggests that the company may not be following the principle of Just Cause in its disciplinary actions.
