Document background
The Disciplinary Note Taking document is an essential tool for maintaining accurate and legally compliant records of employee conduct issues and corrective actions in Canadian workplaces. It is designed to be used whenever there is a need to document violations of company policy, performance issues, or behavioral concerns that require formal address. The document incorporates requirements from relevant Canadian federal and provincial legislation, including the Canada Labour Code, provincial Employment Standards Acts, and privacy laws. It provides a standardized format for recording incident details, employee responses, corrective actions, and follow-up plans, while ensuring procedural fairness and protection of both employer and employee rights. This documentation is crucial for establishing patterns of behavior, demonstrating due process, and supporting potential future HR actions or legal proceedings.
