Discipline is a state of training and a mental attitude | which fosters voluntary compliance with policies, regulations |
and standards | of proper conduct |
Proper discipline stimulates harmony and efficiency | facilitates coordination of effort, promotes high morale |
and encourages public acceptance | and support |
Violations of rules, regulations, and procedures may require counseling, | or some disciplinary action either positive or punitive |
Effective law enforcement requires fair, consistent, and progressive disciplinary action | when an employee's conduct and job performance are inconsistent with the Sheriff's Office's goals |
or contrary to laws, rules, | regulations, or procedures |
The maintenance of discipline is a responsibility | and function of command |
Supervisors and commanding officers are given authority to fulfill their responsibilities | and are expected to exercise it to that end |
When repeated misconduct occurs despite counseling or disciplinary action, a determination must be made | as to whether the fault for the behavior rests with the violator, the violator's supervisor, |
or if other circumstances | have contributed to the misconduct |
This General Order in no way supersedes | employee contracts |
Specific employee rights, appeals, and grievance procedures shall be outlined in | current bargaining contracts and Civil Service and Personnel Rules and Regulations |
