Common use of Imposition of Discipline Clause in Contracts

Imposition of Discipline. The Agency Head or designated Deputy Director or equivalent shall make a final decision on the recommended disciplinary action as soon as reasonably possible but no more than forty-five (45) days after the conclusion of the pre-discipline meeting. At the discretion of the Employer, the forty-five (45) day requirement will not apply in cases where a criminal investigation may occur and the Employer decides not to make a decision on the discipline until after disposition of the criminal charges. The employee and/or union representative may submit a written presentation to the Agency Head or Acting Agency Head. If a final decision is made to impose discipline, the employee and Union shall be notified in writing. The OCSEA Chapter President shall notify the agency head in writing of the name and address of the Union representative to receive such notice. Once the employee has received written notification of the final decision to impose discipline, the disciplinary action shall not be increased. Disciplinary measures imposed shall be reasonable and commensurate with the offense and shall not be used solely for punishment. The Employer will not impose discipline in the presence of other employees, clients, residents, inmates or the public except in extraordinary situations which pose a serious, immediate threat to the safety, health or well-being of others. An employee may be placed on administrative leave or reassigned while an investigation is being conducted except that in cases of alleged abuse of patients or others in the care or custody of the State of Ohio, the employee may be reassigned only if he/she agrees to the reassignment.
