Course Overview

This course has been developed to provide you with an understanding of what misconduct, poor performance and absenteeism are, and what can happen if they're not managed correctly.

Poor performance, misconduct and absenteeism are serious issues in the workplace for both employees and employers. If they are not recognised and addressed, they can lead to a negative workplace environment where unacceptable behaviour is considered normal.

• how to recognise misconduct, serious misconduct, poor performance and absenteeism
• the impact of not managing these unacceptable behaviours, and

Target Audience
