Disciplinary Procedures, Legal issues?

shoutman · 2009-04-14 16:55:36

Hey I'm just wondering about case law and Disciplinary Procedures, is there any laws governing how long a procedure can be resolved in ie. Can a procedure say something along the lines of "issues is to be resolved within three days" or will this be considered too short should an employee appeal any disciplinary procedure?…

Also when appealing a procedure is their any law stating that during the appeal period the action will be suspended? Or can the previous verdict remain in place until the appeal has been heard?

Also generally are there agreements put in place whereby management or trade unions can reserve the right to suspend (in the case of trade unions) or change (in the case of management) disciplinary procedure? Is their any minimum notice to be given in these cases?

Thanks in advance
