101 Sample Write-Ups for Documenting Employee Performance Problems: A Guide to Progressive Discipline & Termination Description
There's no escaping problem employees. But with 101 prewritten disciplinary write-ups at a manager's fingertips, there is a way to escape the headaches, anxiety, and potential legal trouble of performance review or counseling sessions. Completely updated and covering the latest developments in employment law, the second edition of "101 Sample Write-Ups for Documenting Employee Performance Problems" explains the disciplinary process from beginning to end and provides ready-to-use model documents in print and on disk that eliminate the stress and second-guessing about what to do and say. Expertly written, the write-ups cover every kind of problem substandard work quality, absenteeism, insubordination, e-mail misuse, sexual harassment, drug or alcohol abuse, and more. Readers will also find new information on laying the ground work for a tidy dismissal; tying progressive discipline to annual performance reviews; formally addressing intermittent FMLA abuse; ways to avoid drafting documentation that could later be used against their company; and much more. There is perhaps no more dreaded managerial task than communicating with an employee about a disciplinary problem, but this one-of-a-kind guide helps managers handle any scenario fairly, constructively, and, most importantly legally.

There's a reason why this book makes the bestseller list with the Society for Human Resource Management year after year. It's the only book of its kind, and the samples are the star of the show. The author teaches the rules for narrative writing in the book's introduction, and the "expectations" and "consequences" language in the samples can then be cut and pasted right into the corrective action draft that you're writing. This book makes the progressive discipline process very user friendly -- something that, if done well, can help your company tremendously but, if done wrong, can be very damaging. Your company and defense attorneys will be very impressed by your corrective action writing skills if you follow its guidelines and borrow from its templates.

I ordered this book along with 101 Tough Conversations by the same author. Both of these books have been helpful in having tough conversations and for documenting our performance improvement plans. Some more experienced managers still liked the detail where the newer managers really were able to get alot out of this.
