I was sanctioned with a final written warning two months ago. But i've never been issued with a disciplinary outcome letter, aren't I supposed to get one given it's a written warning?
Just curious. If anyone knows more about them than me, pipe up please x
have you had a written warning before the final written warning?
lads who have had a disciplinary, get a letter in the post. I know a lad got two in one month for different things, he only lost his bonus,
not sure if written warns for other things can be used in this disciplinary action, so watch that one in case they try and pull a fast one.
Nope, squeaky clean record before this. The final written was issued two months ago now, I just never got an outcome letter
wont have been a final written warning then, my mate was an expert in this as he had that many disciplinary hearings for been awol etc. he said don't try and deny you f*cked up etc. if you have f*cked up and admit it, you will find they may back down on what they were going to do. I think that rule saved his arse many times!
when I f*cked up at work, and got called up, I admitted I f*cked up. so the gaffer just write down he had me upstairs for it and no further action was taken. he was going to discipline me, but backed off as soon as I admitted, I said plus I was half a sleep too. after doing 4 12 hr shifts off the belt.
if have a squeaky clean record too, you may find they may not give you a harsh punishment. I done my wrist in with a knife trying to cut cable ties. the proper tool wasn't even in the building! so the manager said, ok andy, its health and safety on both our parts. I will just slap you for having a knife on your person and if you had put It down and a child picked up. that was it, one lad got the boot for jumping on pallets while someone was towing them.
I was expecting a right roasting for it, gaffer said nah both of us are to blame, plus your records strong clean one.

By this I mean if you did something that the company classes as gross misconduct they can fire you without any previous warnings, written or verbal.
So even if you had not got your last warning, it would not matter.
yeah that's true, you can come to work normal and before you clock in, they can tell you your suspended, then a hearing will take place. the can even suspend you while your in mid shift too. seen that happen too
