1 Page 1 of 7 Trinity Academy Disciplinary Policy
2 Policy Statement The purpose of the Disciplinary Procedure is to give staff members every opportunity to improve standards of behaviour and conduct and to correct breaches of Academy/College rules and codes of conduct. The Capability Procedure will normally be used to address shortfalls in performance. Scope The Disciplinary Procedure applies to all members of staff. Whilst this procedure does not form part of your contract of employment, it complies with the provisions of the ACAS Code of Practice on Discipline and Grievance Procedures (April 2009). This sets out principles for handling disciplinary and grievance issues at work. During the probationary period the Academy/College may dismiss a staff member without going through the full disciplinary procedure, although, apart from cases of gross misconduct or serious shortfalls in performance or conduct, a warning will normally be given before dismissal is considered. Except in cases of gross misconduct, or during the probationary period, a staff member will not usually be dismissed for a first offence. Academy/College Rules The Academy/College has issued a Code of Conduct and General Rules, and may issue additional rules or instructions from time to time. Staff members are also provide with clear instructions about child protection (or Safeguarding ) issues. Anyone suspected of breaking any of these rules or procedures will have their case addressed through the Disciplinary Procedure. Informal Action It is recognised that most issues can be dealt with swiftly and effectively in an informal manner. This is the preferred method. However, there may be occasions where, either because the informal method has not brought about the desired result or when an alleged act of misconduct is of a more serious nature, a more formal procedure will be used. Formal Disciplinary Procedure Page 2 of 7
3 The aim of the Disciplinary Procedure is to ensure fairness in the treatment of all disciplinary matters arising in the Academy/College. The Academy/College will endeavour to deal with issues promptly and not unreasonably delay meetings, decisions or confirmation of those decisions. Investigations The Academy/College will carry out any necessary investigations of potential disciplinary matters without unreasonable delay to establish the facts of the case. In some cases this will require the holding of an investigatory meeting with the staff member before proceeding to any disciplinary hearing. In others, the investigatory stage will be the collation of evidence by the investigating officer for use at the disciplinary hearing. The staff member will be notified in writing that there will an investigation and also if they are to be suspended. A manager not involved in the allegations will carry out the investigation. The investigating manager will submit a report to the manager who is to conduct the disciplinary hearing who will decide if there is a case to answer. Only at the end of the investigation will it be decided whether a formal disciplinary hearing is appropriate. In exceptional cases the Academy/College may conduct a confidential investigation without advising the staff member. This would apply where notification of the investigation may undermine the gathering of evidence e.g. accusations of embezzlement. Disciplinary Hearing If there is a case to answer the staff member will be notified in writing of the allegation of misconduct made against them and the possible consequences to enable them to prepare to answer the case at a disciplinary hearing. The staff member will normally be provided with copies of any written evidence, including any witness statements. Although in some cases witness statements will be confidential and will not be disclosed in full. If the issue is serious an indication that it could result in dismissal should be given. The staff member will be advised of the time, date and venue of the hearing and of their right to be accompanied at the hearing. Staff members, and their companions if relevant, should make every effort to attend meeting the meeting, as should the manager hearing the case. At the meeting, the manager hearing the case will explain the complaint against the staff member and go through the evidence that has been gathered. The staff member will be allowed to set out their case and answer any allegations that have been made. They will also be given a reasonable opportunity to ask questions, present evidence and call relevant witnesses. They will also be given an opportunity to raise points about any information provided by witnesses. Where the Academy/College or a staff member intends to call relevant witnesses they should give advance notice that they intend to do this. Right to be Accompanied Page 3 of 7
4 A staff member has a statutory right to be accompanied at a disciplinary hearing which could result in a formal warning, or some other disciplinary action being taken or the confirmation of a warning or some other disciplinary action (appeal hearing). The staff member must act reasonably in exercising this right, depending on the circumstances of the case. It would not normally be reasonable for the staff member to insist on being accompanied by a companion whose presence would prejudice the hearing nor would it be reasonable for a staff member to ask to accompanied by a companion from a remote geographical location if someone suitable and willing was available on site. The chosen companion may be a work colleague, a trade union representative (certified to have received the necessary training), or an official employed by a trade union. The Academy/College does not permit staff members to be accompanied by their legal representatives or family members who are not employed by us. If the staff member s chosen companion is not available at the time proposed for the hearing then they may be asked to find an alternative companion. If this is not possible, then an alternative date may be proposed and again the staff member and the companion must make every effort to attend the meeting. In the interests of holding the disciplinary meeting within a reasonable timescale, if this leads to the meeting being postponed again, the Academy/College may have no option but to insist the staff member finds an alternative companion who can attend the meeting. Rights of the Companion The companion should be allowed to address the hearing to put and sum up the staff member s case, respond on behalf of the staff member to any views expressed at the meeting and confer with the staff member during the hearing. The companion does not however have the right to answer questions on the staff member s behalf, address the hearing if the staff member does not wish it or prevent the staff member from explaining their case. Suspension In cases of potential gross misconduct a staff member will be suspended with pay. In exceptional circumstances suspension without pay may be appropriate Additionally, the Academy/College reserves the right to suspend a staff member on full pay at any stage of the formal Procedure if it is in the interests of the staff member, of other staff, or the College, or to promote fair and unhindered application of the Procedure. Stages in the Formal Disciplinary Procedure Page 4 of 7
5 VERBAL WARNING FIRST WRITTEN WARNING FINAL WRITTEN WARNING DISMISSAL Deciding on appropriate action After the meeting the manager who heard the case will decide whether or not disciplinary, or any other action, is justified and inform the staff member accordingly in writing of the decision. When deciding on the appropriate level of sanction the disciplining manager will consider the distinction between relatively minor disciplinary offences and more serious ones, reflect any earlier warnings which are still current at the time of the misconduct complained of and, wherever possible, give the staff member the opportunity to improve their conduct to a satisfactory standard within a reasonable period of time. Where misconduct is confirmed then it is likely that the staff member will be issued with a VERBAL WARNING for a first offence. A further act of misconduct or failure to improve standards of behaviour within a set period would normally result in A FIRST WRITTEN WARNING. If the staff member s first act of misconduct is sufficiently serious, it may be appropriate to move directly to a WRITTEN WARNING (either a FIRST or FINAL one). This might arise in situations where the staff member s actions have had, or are liable to have, a serious or harmful effect on the Academy/College. The outcome of the meeting will be given to the staff member in writing, confirming the level of warning issued, the nature of the misconduct and the change in behaviour required (with the timescale). Normally, a VERBAL WARNING will remain on the staff member s personal file for six months and for twelve months for a FIRST or FINAL WRITTEN WARNING. The staff member will also be warned that failure to improve behaviour or conduct may result in further disciplinary action being taken (which may include dismissal) and advised of the right of appeal. However, these time limits are guidelines only and longer or shorter periods may be appropriate according to the particular circumstances of the case. The Academy/College will be at liberty to review the above time limits in accordance with good practice. Dismissal If, following the issue of a FINAL WRITTEN WARNING, the staff member fails to meet the required standard of conduct or commits a further act of misconduct within the timescale or if the staff member commits an act of gross misconduct, then he or she may face dismissal. In such cases, the staff member will be provided with written reasons for dismissal, the date on which employment ended, and the right of appeal. In the case of gross misconduct dismissal will normally be without notice (or pay in lieu thereof) and all other employee benefits will cease at the date of termination of employment. Page 5 of 7
6 Sanctions other than Dismissal On occasions it may be sensible to consider sanctions other than dismissal including demotion and/or suspension without pay. The Academy/College reserves the right to take such action where necessary and appropriate. Misconduct Examples of Disciplinary Offences The following list, which is not exhaustive, provides examples of offences, which are normally regarded as misconduct and could lead to action being taken under the formal disciplinary procedure: poor timekeeping/lateness unauthorised absence or failure to notify The Academy/College when absent misuse of The Academy/College property or equipment failure to follow a reasonable management instruction use of inappropriate language about or towards another member of staff or student breaking specific rules or instructions carelessness in handling The Academy/College property or that belonging to another member of staff breach of the Staff Code of Conduct or other failure to meet the required standards of behaviour breach of The Academy/College rules and procedures as from time to time in force. failure to meet the required standard of dress. Clearly, repeated breaches of The Academy/College rules and procedures may lead to further warnings which could ultimately lead to dismissal with notice. Gross Misconduct If a staff member is suspected or accused of an act of potential gross misconduct, he or she may be suspended with pay whilst an investigation is carried out. If on completion of the investigation and the disciplinary hearing, The Academy/College is satisfied that gross misconduct has occurred, the result will normally be summary dismissal without notice or pay in lieu of notice. The following are examples of the sort of offences that are normally regarded as gross misconduct. The list is not intended to be exhaustive: dishonesty, theft, or fraud (including the disposal of stolen goods) or accepting inducement fighting, assault, bullying, physical abuse, serious verbal abuse, threatening behaviour, immoral behaviour falsification of The Academy/College records or systems knowingly providing false or misleading information on your application form knowingly working for The Academy/College when not having the legal right to work in the UK unauthorised possession of The Academy/College, staff members or student s property gross negligence which causes (or could cause) unacceptable loss, damage or injury wilful damage to The Academy/College property or that belonging to another staff member or student discrimination, serious harassment or victimisation of others Page 6 of 7
7 conduct bringing The Academy/College into serious disrepute conduct seriously detrimental to the work of The Academy/College or of its clients or partners serious insubordination, or blatant disregard of reasonable management instructions or requests flagrant disregard of health and safety provisions or other statutory requirements harassment, serious discrimination, or victimisation unauthorised disclosure of confidential information sleeping on duty (for security staff or others on duty at night) serious insubordination abuse of The Academy/College s Sick Pay Scheme wilful or negligent corruption of computer data or other serious breach of the Network Services Policy being under the influence of alcohol, intoxicants or illegal drugs during working hours carrying out personal business during company time without prior written permission of the Academy/College reproduction of The Academy/College material, including computer software or confidential documentation without prior written permission of the Principal unauthorised absence in certain situations conduct whether at or outside The Academy/College which fundamentally breaches the relationship of trust and confidence between you and The Academy/College a criminal conviction that is incompatible with your continued employment with The Academy/College. The above offences are in addition to any other gross misconduct offences referred to elsewhere in this Staff Handbook. This list does not include all those offences for which instant dismissal may be considered the appropriate penalty. Nor does it exclude the possibility of the College taking any action in accordance with its rights and duties under criminal law. Disciplinary/Dismissal Appeals Procedure In all cases you will have the right to appeal a disciplinary decision taken against you. If you disagree with the decision or consider it unjust you should appeal in writing within 5 working days of the date of written confirmation of the penalty (or as soon as reasonably practicable). The appeal must be made in writing to the manager who is notified in the confirmation of warning letter, setting out the grounds for appeal. The Academy/College will arrange an appeal hearing without unreasonable delay and appoint a manager to hear the appeal. This will normally be the manager of the manager who took the disciplinary/dismissal action (or another senior manager at a similar level) and who was not involved in the disciplinary/dismissal decision). The staff member will again be given the opportunity to state their case and to be accompanied by a work colleague or trade union representative or official if desired. There is no further right of appeal. Page 7 of 7
