General Principles on Workplace Disciplinary Procedure: A Namibian Perspective takes a pragmatic and comprehensive approach to the disciplinary procedure process. This book is built on the foundation of ‘workplace’ as defined in within the Namibian Labour Act, 2007. It extracts principles from Namibian case law pertaining to content and formulation of various disciplinary offences typically found within the workplace, and explains how these can be defined to assist employers in drafting well-rounded ‘disciplinary codes’ in their workplace.
The book maps the process of discipline within the workplace: the point an offence is formulated, the disciplinary procedure to be applied to the offence, the consideration of the disciplinary chairperson’s and committee’s considerations of mitigating and aggravating factors, the types of general disciplinary sanctions, and the appeal and review processes of disciplinary decisions
The book allows for quick and easy access to information required to chair diciplinary actions effectively. It will prove useful in assisting to effectively resolve labour disputes and also as a readily available resource for students seeking to understand hearings and chair such hearings, as well as avid scholars.
