Can you be disciplined for not following a company policy and procedure manual, I mad a error a worked shifted July 23, 2018 and i worked my next scheduled shift but since have been asked to stay off and call back on August 6th, 2018 to find out if i'll be returning to work or still be off, I was never informed if i was under suspension from this incident and have apologized in verbal and written form. I have been left to feel unsure if i will be returning to work the Week of August 6th, 2018 or still be of or worse let go from my employment. This issue has left me feeling like i would much rather tender my resignation of my position and take my accumulated 4% vacation pay witch has accumulated during a 17 month period is this fall under any such form of a constructive dismissal. I am trying to find what rights i may have before considering tendering anything i am also left to feel that any attempts to seek employment in the field i work in might be blocked or prevent me from working in it. or am i just simply better to work out a mutual parting
Thank you for contacting our firm.
You can be disciplined, but the discipline should be appropriate given the seriousness of the error.
The employer should also be clear in its explanation of the error, as well as the discipline it intends to enforce.
Before tendering a resignation, I would advise you seek legal advice. Resigning means you forfeit any entitlements. We would need more information before advising you of the extent of those potential entitlements.
