Corrective Action for Classified Staff
Final Counseling
Final counseling is the last corrective action step prior to dismissal.
- After reviewing the performance concerns and identifying the actions required to correct them, either develop a new draft action plan, or revise the existing one.
- Prepare a final counsel memo to the employee that confirms the final counseling meeting and includes the employee's right to representation, and schedule the final counseling meeting.
- During the meeting, review the draft action plan with the employee.
- Following the meeting provide the employee with a
follow-up memo. Consult with your Human Resources Consultant (HRC) for review.
Most contracts include the option for you to provide a paid, decision–making day for the employee to consider the seriousness of the situation. Consult with your HRC on the appropriateness of a decision–making day.
