Description
This book dwells on whether this ("if you do not comply") threat is the Only solution to preventing and/or solving industrial disputes or whether there is any alternative approach - "Discipline Without Punishment? Both approaches are possible and this "HOW TO" book attempts to show when and how to apply Negative Discipline and the circumstances during which Positive Discipline or Discipline without Punishment is the answer.
The objective of this book is to assist Supervisors and Managers to exercise the disciplinary process in a manner that will satisfy the following:
(1) The intent is to correct the behaviour, not punish the employee, and to develop systems that reward those who perform their jobs satisfactorily, not overlook them,
(2) The employees perceive the disciplinary process as fair, and
(3) The various steps in the disciplinary process are followed in compliance with Industrial Court decisions as well as satisfy the requirements of the Malaysian Employment Act 1955 and the Industrial Relations Act 1967.
Sufficient examples are provided of formats to use so that even a relatively inexperienced Supervisor can use this process of Discipline to attain his, as well as the organisation's goal, of improved productivity and high morale.
Productivity improvements do not specifically relate only to output of production in a factory but, generally to improvements in the job performance of employees whether or not these can be quantified. Productivity improvements are required in all enterprises whether these be in production, service or the public sector and, it is hoped that this book will provide sufficient leverage in this direction.
