Suspension
['Performance Management']
- Employers must inform employees of the reason for a suspension and keep a written document of all suspensions across the company.
In some cases, it is in the company’s best interest to remove an employee from the workplace pending an investigation or as a corrective measure. When issuing a suspension, be sure to inform the employee of the reason for the suspension, the duration of the suspension, expected behavior following the suspension, and the consequences for repeated violations. Keep written documentation of all suspensions.
