Depends what you did.

It will all be in your contract, regarding procedures like that.

Depends if the warning was for your typing!

Hi Scotty.

How long have you worked for the company and how many people does it employ? Is it a large company or a small firm employing just a few people?

What is the nature of the complaint? Time keeping, work performance, or something more serious?

Are you in a union?

[Keeprockin]

Our place,normal procedure (as far as I can remember) was a verbal warning,then a written warning,stating the possible repercussions if you didn't improve, then interview concerning disciplinary action. Normally on the final warning,(the interview,) a union rep or friend should be allowed to attend as a witness only.

you should have been allowed a witness. Even if it were a verbal warning, you are still allowed a witness. If you are with a union or individually you can actually appeal the decision bearing in mind it is within 5days of the confirmed reached decision. How long have you been with the company??
