What does a written warning mean?
If the work or behavior does not improve or change, the employer may issue a written warning stating that the employee may be terminated if they do not make improvements or changes. Ultimately, it’s up to the employer how they want to handle warnings in the workplace.
What can you get a written warning for?
You tend to issue written warnings when the issue hits the sweet spot between first-time occurrence and gross misconduct. If an employee commits a disciplinary offence but has never done so before and has a clean record otherwise, a verbal warning should suffice.
Are legal cases italicized?
Note: In court documents (briefs, motions) and legal memoranda, a full case name is usually italicized or underlined. In academic legal writing (i.e., a law review article), full case names are generally not underlined or italicized.
How do I get a warning?
The simplest way to get a warning is to politely ask the officer if you can have a warning. Apologize for what you did, but note that you normally do try to follow the law to the letter. Time the moment correctly. If you wait until the officer has already started writing, you may have missed your moment.
