Loading...Download the Employee Write-Up Form which is a disciplinary report document used to warn or terminate an employee according to their actions. Generally this is a form that allows the employer to counsel with the employee as well, to provide documentation that the employer has provided ample opportunity for the employee to make appropriate changes in order to remain employed. An employer will usually allow 2 or more write-ups prior to consideration for termination. These documents are usually placed in an employee’s records for further evaluation at a later date.
