Document background
The Disciplinary Notice is a crucial document in Malaysian employment practice, used when an employer needs to formally address workplace misconduct, policy violations, or performance issues. It forms part of the progressive disciplinary process required under Malaysian employment law, particularly the Employment Act 1955 and related regulations. The document serves multiple purposes: it officially notifies the employee of specific concerns, documents the employer's compliance with legal requirements, establishes a formal record for potential future actions, and provides the employee with a clear understanding of the issues and opportunity to respond. A properly drafted Disciplinary Notice helps protect both employer and employee interests by ensuring transparency, fairness, and compliance with legal requirements for workplace discipline.
