QUESTION

Can I ask for proof of disciplinary action?

Asked on Jan 02nd, 2015 on Employment Contracts - New Jersey
More details to this question:
My company has never had a handbook or written policies regarding disciplinary actions. Recently they addressed a complaint with regard to unacceptable employee interaction with myself and another employee. I accept the written warning and punishment handed for my part, yet I have no assurance the other person was actually disciplined as they provided me with a "suspension" that has been waived. (So basically, just on paper). Am I entitled to know that disciplinary action was taken against the other employee involved?

I would work carefully with the HR department of your employer. I would not take any actions that would put my employment at jeopardy. you are not entitled to the results of the disciplinary action of the other employee. The contract is between the employer and the specific employee.
