Dear Vasu,

You have inquired about the format for the show cause notice. However, a show cause notice is not a simple form to be filled out. It is issued to an employee who has engaged in misconduct.

In the show cause notice, we must detail how the misconduct was discovered, what actions constituted the wrongdoing by the employee, where and when these actions took place.

Therefore, please provide us with the complete background of the case. Without this information, the external members of this forum will not be able to understand the nature of the misconduct, making it impossible to draft the show cause notice.

Thanks,
Dinesh Divekar

  • Respected Vasu,

    You need the format or a ready draft for the show cause notice. However, a show cause notice and other documents or disciplinary letters like warning letters and charge sheets are not ready-made drafts where one simply fills in the blanks.

    In the show cause notice, we need to include the actual facts that were committed by the employee. Such notices depend entirely on specific misconduct, such as absenteeism, interference with safety protocols, negligence on duty, theft, abusive language towards superiors, slowing down work, being under the influence of alcohol while on duty, and sexual harassment. Therefore, you should gather factual information and investigate every fact connected to or related to such misconduct.

    Be mindful when drafting any notice. It must be specific and must outline the necessary particulars. This will be helpful for further inquiry and adjudication.

    Thanks,

    (Fact Check Failed/Partial)-The mention of "interfere with safety guard" in the list of misconducts is inaccurate. It should be "interfering with safety measures." Thank you for your detailed explanation.
