Managing employee misconduct requires more than managerial discretion—it requires fair procedures and compliance with the Sabah Labor Ordinance (Cap. 67). Improper disciplinary actions may expose organisations to legal disputes, unfair dismissal claims, and reputational risks.

This two-day programme equips HR professionals, managers, and employers with practical skills to manage workplace misconduct through progressive discipline, effective investigations, domestic inquiry procedures, and legally compliant disciplinary actions. Through case studies, role plays, and practical exercises, participants will gain the confidence to handle disciplinary matters fairly and consistently.
