The type of corrective action the college takes will depend upon the circumstances of each case. While the college attempts to provide opportunities for employees to correct or improve their performance, infractions of college policies may result in immediate discharge, depending upon the circumstances.

When considering corrective action, the college considers the following circumstances:

1. Your truthfulness and willingness to cooperate in investigating the circumstances of an incident or performance issue
2. Your perceived ability and willingness to improve and rectify the problem
3. Your past performance record
4. Your working relationships with supervisors and co-workers
5. The severity of your conduct and the harm you caused, plus the business needs of the college

All corrective actions will usually be discussed with the assistant vice president for human resources before any actions are taken.

If there’s a situation where immediate dismissal may be required, and the assistant vice president for human resources or designee can’t be reached, you may be suspended, pending an investigation.

Any disciplinary action you receive may prohibit you from participating in a supervisory or leadership role with students. These situations will be evaluated on a case-by-case basis.
