Progressive discipline is a key concept in the law of dismissal and discipline. Generally, it takes a lot to warrant just cause for dismissal. When an employee is guilty of misconduct or poor performance, employers must usually give the employee warning that such misconduct isn’t acceptable, giving the employee a chance to improve.
