Notification of Disciplinary Action When an administrative investigation leads to disciplinary action, the procedures for notification to the employee contained in Article 19 shall be followed.
Types of Disciplinary Action It is the intent of the District to establish disciplinary procedures which are commensurate with the reasons or causes for disciplinary action. The principle of progressive discipline should be applied when repeated action is necessary. The following types of disciplinary action are listed in order of their increasing severity.
Disciplinary Procedures The employing authority should ensure that all employees are aware of the disciplinary rules and procedures that apply. All employees should also be aware to whom they can apply if they are dissatisfied with any disciplinary decision. These procedures should accord with legal requirements and with the ACAS Code of Practice and guidance.
Disciplinary Records Any disciplinary record shall be removed from an Employee’s file after two (2) years from the date of the offence, provided that there have been no similar warnings in that period, in which event the time for the application of this section shall be counted from the date of the succeeding warning.

The fees of the arbitrator shall be shared equally by the Town and the Union. The conduct of the arbitration shall be under the exclusive jurisdiction and control of the arbitrator which shall conform to applicable law. All decisions rendered by the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon all parties.
