The Attendance Discipline Letter is a crucial document in Irish employment practice, typically issued when informal attempts to address attendance issues have not resulted in necessary improvements. This formal communication is part of a progressive disciplinary process and must align with Irish employment legislation, particularly the Unfair Dismissals Acts and the Code of Practice on Grievance and Disciplinary Procedures. The letter serves to document specific attendance concerns, reference previous discussions or warnings, outline required improvements, and specify potential consequences of continued non-compliance. It should be used when there is a documented pattern of attendance issues that requires formal intervention, and the content must balance being firm about expectations while offering appropriate support for improvement.
