27. DISCIPLINARY PROCEDURE

27.1 The Employer and the Union recognizes that a disciplinary procedure is essential for the conduct of the Company's affairs and for the safety and well-being of all members of staff, and the public. Disciplinary procedures help to promote fairness and order in the treatment of individuals and in the conduct of industrial relations.

27.2 The key principle underlying this disciplinary code is that Employer and Employees should treat one another with mutual respect. It places a premium on both employment justice and efficient operation of the business.

27.3 While Employees should be protected from arbitrary or other unfair actions, the Employer is entitled to satisfactory conduct and work performance from the Employees. The procedure is therefore intended to operate in cases where it is alleged that the conduct or behavior of a member of staff falls below acceptable standards.

27.4 All disciplinary measure should be taken in line with the code of good practice on Disciplinary Procedures from the section 99 of the Employment and Labour Relations Act of 2004 and incorporates the Cardinal principles of natural justice. They also reflect to overall Company’s Human Resources policy.

27.5 The Company recognizes the role, purpose, and rights of staff Trade Unions in the disciplinary process.

27.6 Any disciplinary sanction beyond verbal warning/ reprimand and counseling should be done having given the opportunity to the employee to make his representation. For example, before issuing a written warning employee should be informed of the reasons and have time to defend himself assisted by a representative.

27.7 Repeated written warnings on the same misconduct and or such serious misconducts that may warrant final written warning or termination or dismissal should be preceded by formal hearing chaired by Senior Manager.

26.8 Any decision made on the disciplinary process should be based on both procedural and substantive fairness. The employee will have the right of appeal when aggrieved by any decision to the higher level of Management and or any other labour tribunals as per ELRA provisions.
