Document background
The Disciplinary Action Letter For Employees is a crucial document in Dutch employment relationships, used when formal disciplinary measures need to be taken against an employee for violations of company policy, misconduct, or performance issues. This document must comply with Dutch employment law, including the Dutch Civil Code (Burgerlijk Wetboek) and, where applicable, the Works Councils Act. It serves multiple purposes: documenting the specific incident or behavior requiring disciplinary action, outlining the company's expectations for improvement, stating the consequences of continued infractions, and protecting both employer and employee by ensuring proper documentation of the disciplinary process. The letter should be clear, factual, and demonstrate procedural fairness in accordance with Dutch labor regulations.
