Legal Question in Employment Law in Florida
Written Warnings
I am a supervisor for a company. I was just informed that when I give an employee a written warning, and the employee is terminated, if that employee ultimately wins a court decision to be reinstated because of an error in the way the warning was written, I am subject to disciplinary action up to and including termination. I was always under the understanding that all written warnings and actions are reviewed by and approved by my supervisor and the human resourse deptartment before any action is taken. How is it I may be the one held responsible?
Thank You.

Re: Written Warnings
These are internal decisions made by your company, which are not subject to legal review. They are telling you point blank that they will support your disciplinary decisions, but they better be defensible.
