Subject: Formal Reprimand for Unacceptable Conduct [Your Company's Letterhead] [Your Company's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] [Date] [Employee's Name] [Employee's Address] [City, State, ZIP Code] Dear [Employee's Name], We are writing this letter to address a matter of utmost concern regarding your recent conduct at our organization. It has come to our attention that your behavior, both in terms of professional demeanor and adherence to company policies, has fallen significantly below the expected standards. This correspondence aims to outline the specifics of the misconduct and to emphasize the consequences should such behavior persist. First and foremost, let us reiterate our organization's core values, which encompass integrity, respect, and professionalism. As an employee, you are expected to uphold these principles and consistently demonstrate them in your interactions with colleagues, superiors, customers, and all other stakeholders. It is disappointing to report that your conduct, as observed by various witnesses and documented in incidents, has proven to be in direct contradiction to these values. [Optional: Provide specific examples of the employee's unacceptable conduct such as disrespectful language, inappropriate behavior, unexcused absences, violation of workplace safety regulations, etc.] Such conduct reflects poorly on our company's image and has the potential to damage our relationships with clients and colleagues. Moreover, it can create an unhealthy work environment, which ultimately affects employee morale and productivity. It is crucial to understand that these issues undermine the fabric of our shared goals and values, jeopardizing the harmonious work environment we strive to maintain. In light of the severity of the aforementioned conduct, the repercussions of your behavior must not be taken lightly. Therefore, we have decided to impose the following corrective measures: 1. Formal Written Reprimand: This letter serves as an official reprimand for your unacceptable conduct, which will be placed in your personnel file. It will remain part of your employment record and may be used as a basis for any future disciplinary actions. 2. Performance Improvement Plan (PIP): Effective immediately, you are required to participate in a Performance Improvement Plan designed to address the specific areas of concern outlined in this reprimand. The PIP will establish clear goals, expectations, and a timeline for improvement. Failure to meet the established benchmarks may result in further disciplinary action, up to and including termination. 3. Mandatory Employee Assistance Program (EAP): Considering the seriousness of the issues at hand, we highly recommend your participation in the company's Employee Assistance Program. It is important to seek personal and professional guidance to rectify the underlying causes or attitudes contributing to the unacceptable conduct. 4. Ongoing Monitoring: Your behavior will be closely monitored during the period of this reprimand. Any recurrence of misconduct or failure to meet the required performance standards shall be treated with increased severity and, depending on the nature, may lead to further disciplinary measures or potential termination of employment. We strongly encourage you to reflect upon this reprimand and take the necessary steps to rectify your conduct in both immediate and long-term scenarios. Remember that we value our employees and are deeply committed to supporting professional growth and development. Should you have any questions or seek clarification regarding this reprimand or its associated procedures, please contact [HR Representative's Full Name] at [HR Representative's Email]. We expect your immediate attention and compliance with these measures. Sincerely, [Your Name] [Your Position] [Company Name] [Optional: CC: Human Resources Department, Employee's Supervisor]
