Document background
A Letter of Censure is a critical tool in Singapore's employment framework for managing workplace discipline and maintaining professional standards. This document is typically issued when verbal warnings have proven ineffective or when the severity of the misconduct warrants immediate formal action. The letter should detail specific incidents, reference relevant policies or regulations violated, and clearly communicate consequences of continued misconduct. Under Singapore law, such documentation is essential for establishing a clear record of progressive discipline and may be required if further action becomes necessary, including termination. The document must align with the Employment Act, Tripartite Guidelines, and other relevant employment legislation.
