Disciplinary pack

Everything for a conduct disciplinary, from suspension to appeal: dated timeline, every letter, investigation and hearing notes, and a case log.
Included in Full access, £7.99 a monthGet it

For employers in England, Wales and Scotland dealing with an allegation of misconduct, including gross misconduct. Answer a few questions and the pack dates each step, writes the letters to the Acas Code (and the draft Code expected in 2027), and flags the checks that matter before you decide, including unfair dismissal protection from 1 January 2027. Northern Ireland isn't covered. This pack is for conduct; poor performance follows a different process.
