Subject: Letter of discipline in respect to the behaviour of Janet Shey.
Respected sir,
With the objective of outlining the disciplinary issues in the behaviour of Janet Shey working as
a dietary aide in a complex. Passed by the Canadian Government in the Parliament, the Canada
Labour Code contains all provisions for labour relations in the country. The employees and
workers must abide by the code of labour relations as provided in the Canada Labour Code
(CLC). The Code is primarily divided into following three parts:
I. Relations with respect to industrial operations: This part primarily conveys that the
employees and workers are free to decide and join trade union of their choice with the
objective of participating in lawful activities (Facey, MacEachen, Verma & Morales,
2017).
II. Health and safety issues in workplaces: In order to ensure that the workplace environment
and condition is safe and healthy for the workers and employees this part contains all
necessary provisions to be followed by the companies and organizations.
III. Labour standards: Detailed discussion has been made in the third and final part of the CLC
about terms, conditions of employment, expected behaviour of employees and workers,
issues such sexual harassment in the workplace, conditions for termination of employment
and other such matters (Leipziger, 2017).
Firstly, let’s have the workplace’s discipline policy before discussing the issue in detailed to
apply the matters outlined in the policy on the facts of the case.
