THE ISSUES:

Some of the questions addressed:

  • What is zero tolerance? What are the principles of progressive discipline?

  • Are zero tolerance policies inconsistent with progressive discipline?

  • Does zero tolerance conflict with the just cause standard?

  • When will arbitrators uphold zero tolerance policies? What effect will a zero tolerance policy have on an arbitrator?

  • What are the pros and cons to having a zero tolerance policy?
