HR Management
Disciplinary Management
Discipline management is therefore a fundamental role and obligation of line management and the directorate of human resources as well as employee representatives. To protect employees from unfair and irrational conduct, disciplinary codes, procedures, and standards should be consistently implemented in the workplace.
Why is disciplinary code and procedures/process important?
A business needs to have a disciplinary code and process to ensure everyone understands the rules and standards set by the employer.
HRPT has the necessary skills and experience to assist business owners with disciplinary procedures and the management of employee grievances helping to defuse a volatile situation. The business owner is informed of the process and the importance of containment, ensuring that employees feel that their opinions count as well as the risk of discontent spreading and disrupting their business.
HRPT services include:
Impartial chairing of disciplinary hearings
HRPT provides impartial chairing for disciplinary hearings to enhance the credibility of the disciplinary hearing and to ensure both sides are treated fairly.
Preparations for CCMA hearings
HRPT helps the business owner to prepare for CCMA proceedings.
Our approach is as follows:
- Evidence is prepared to ensure the evidence can be presented in such a way that everyone can follow with ease
- Witnesses are identified and engaged to ensure they will attend.
- The presentation is prepared and copies are assembled for the participants in the hearing.
Union and bargaining councils
As experienced negotiators HRPT assists business owners with the following:
- Negotiations concerning benefits and salary increases
- Dispute resolution
- Registrations with the relevant bargaining councils
- Provide information about regulations and requirements i.e., rates of payment.
Minute Taking
HRPT offers a minute-taking service to business owners during disciplinary hearings. Minutes are taken during the proceedings by an HRPT employee, distributed at the hearing for confirmation, and signed off as a true representation of the proceedings. Already working on this as there is a client in Cape Town requesting this service for CPT, DBN, and JHB
