The Employee Reprimand Form is a crucial document in New Zealand's employment framework, designed to formally document workplace disciplinary issues while ensuring compliance with local employment legislation. This document should be used when an employee's conduct or performance requires formal disciplinary action, following verbal warnings or for serious incidents requiring immediate written documentation. The form includes detailed information about the incident(s), previous warnings, expected improvements, and consequences, while adhering to New Zealand's requirements for procedural fairness and good faith dealing. It serves as both a corrective tool and a legal record, protecting both employer and employee interests in the disciplinary process.
