It begins by explaining that employee discipline comes from the Latin word for teaching and is used to show disapproval of behaviors, reform employees, and warn others. The rationale for discipline includes decreased expenses, increased productivity, and industrial peace. Discipline is defined as aligning employee behavior with employer expectations through a continuing process. Progressive discipline involves a series of increasingly severe steps from verbal warnings to termination.
