This popular guide to disciplinary actions, in its third edition, includes major revisions, updates, and additions. The book starts with the four basic components of a disciplinary action: cause, knowledge, penalty, and proof, and then turns to the most common disciplinary problems in the federal civil service. Real life cases show the reader how to deal with insubordination, alcohol and drug problems, off-duty conduct, and workplace violence. It continues with a discussion of protected activities and then turns to the procedures and administrative details of a disciplinary action. The book concludes with two entirely new chapters: one on preventive steps and one on how and why to fire problem employees.
