During this podcast, the podcast team discussed the importance of good documentation regarding employee behavior, performance and discipline.

Documenting performance and behavior provides notice to the employee regarding positive and negative events in the workplace. Well drafted documentation can be a key part of an employer’s defense to a claim. Roshni explained that before documenting events at work, managers should investigate thoroughly and make sure they are documenting facts rather than hearsay and rumor. Troy discussed how the documentation should be specific with details that are obtained though the investigation. Generalized comments do not provide guidance to the employee or create the best paper trail that will be used to defend a claim.
