  5. Contact Human Resources • Consult with Employee Relations (ER) with questions since there may be contractual obligations. • Discuss what you really want to achieve through the corrective action and/or discipline. • Bring supporting documentation. • ER may suggest edits or changes to comply with campus practice, contract language, etc.

  6. Union Rights • Contracts provide specific language regarding working conditions, corrective actions, and disciplinary actions. Following processes takes time. • Become familiar with the employee’s union rights, even though the employee isn’t. • Weingarten Rights. Union members have the right to have union representation at meetings where disciplinary action may be discussed.
