Employers want their employee documentation effective and to successfully stand up to any challenge. Attorneys will advise their clients to document any employee violation of company policies. And while it may be impossible to write 100 percent ironclad documentation, there are steps you can take to get closer to achieving this goal. In some instances, HR, supervisors, and managers need to learn how to prepare good documentation, which involves converting verbal conversations with employees into defensible written formats. Getting it wrong or incomplete may cause unwanted problems. Strong employment documentation begins with deciding which employee actions should or shouldn’t be documented. The managers and supervisors need to be able to write good, defensible documentation. Documenting a termination requires documenting the issues leading up to that termination. Knowing how to put that down on paper is a key part of the “proof” you’ll be asked to provide if ever challenged, and this is where the risks for you can increase significantly.
