Hi All, Can anyone tell me if we provide a Show Cause Notice to any employee then if he/she pleads for one more chance & for not repeating the mistake again then can we give him a chance?

Veena, If he committed the mistake inadvertently, nothing wrong in giving him one more chance. To err is human. Pon

This is management's decision and will depend mainly on the nature of the mistake. Management shouldn't create much fuss if the mistake is done inadvertently, as rightly said by Pon.

First, you should understand that a Show Cause Notice is meant to ascertain whether the accusation against the employee is true and whether the accused employee accepts it. Once the employee accepts the accusation, pleads guilty, and seeks mitigation of the punishment, it must be considered. Punishments serve as deterrents rather than purely punitive measures. The best course of action would be to issue a "censure," which may lead the employee to mend his ways.

I endorse the views of Ms. Veena. However, if the mistake is minor in nature, you can issue a warning letter indicating to him that the repetition of such or similar mistakes will be viewed seriously. If it is a major mistake, you have to order an inquiry into the matter and take appropriate action as per the conduct rules of your organization.

Thanks a lot, Subba. I am very new to HR, and our ED has instructed me to issue a notice to the concerned employee. However, I personally do not consider it to be a serious issue. I have issued the notice but have requested management to give him one more chance.

Of course, the company has to train the workers first and ensure everyone understands. If a worker is slow to receive training, then, of course, they should be given a chance. If not done intentionally, the employer should give them a chance. If done intentionally, then, sorry.
