Hi Seniors, I am preparing a flow chart for warning letters leading to termination. For example, for the 1st misconduct, advise; for the 2nd, counseling; for the 3rd, verbal warning; for the 4th, warning; for the 5th, stern warning; and finally, termination of service. Please help me determine how many warnings per category I should serve the employee.
Thanks,

As per me Jenny one warning for each section is enough. A good employee will always understand in the 1st advice discussion only. Warm Regards Rashmi Rohilla

No one is perfect in this world. Normally, you can have two warning letters (WL), and the third letter will be the termination letter (TL). Two chances can be given: one for the mistake and the second for the final review and correction.
Also, you have to consider the situation. Except for integrity issues, you can have two WLs and a TL. For integrity issues, you can terminate immediately.
For each WL, you have to obtain the employee's consent letter, which should be filed in his/her personal file. The same should be reviewed for performance appraisals. Additionally, it will be useful when the employee is involved in legal proceedings.
Thank you.
