Generally the term of progressive discipline is used in job related behavior. It is a sequence of steps devised to improve the performance of any employee who makes repeated mistakes. The common steps taken in this regard are:

- Verbal warning

- Notice in writing

- Suspension from the service

- Termination

Sometimes different schools also apply this progressive discipline to their students. Frequent misbehavior of any student is tried to be addressed by using similar phenomenon which leads to expulsion from the school.

Progressive discipline is a process for dealing with job-related behavior that does not meet expected and communicated performance standards. The primary purpose for progressive discipline is to assist the employee to understand that a performance problem or opportunity for improvement exists.

The process features increasingly formal efforts to provide feedback to the employee so he or she can correct the problem. The goal of progressive discipline is to improve employee performance.

 

The process of progressive discipline is not intended as a punishment for an employee, but to assist the employee to overcome performance problems and satisfy job expectations. Progressive discipline is most successful when it assists an individual to become an effectively performing member of the organization.
