Understanding Point Totals

How Points Work

  • Each infraction type has an assigned point value
  • Points are added when infractions are documented
  • Points may expire after a period (if configured)

Point Expiration

Some organizations set points to expire over time. For example:
  • Points might expire after 6 months
  • This rewards sustained good behavior
  • Check with your administrator about your organization’s policy

Thresholds

When points reach certain levels, actions are recommended:
StatusMeaning
No actionBelow first threshold
Verbal warningFirst threshold reached
Written warningSecond threshold reached
Final warningThird threshold reached
TerminationMaximum threshold reached
Threshold names and values are configured by your organization. The above are examples.

Using History for Decisions

Before Taking Action

When considering disciplinary action:
  1. Review the full history - Don’t just look at recent incidents
  2. Look for patterns - Are infractions isolated or repeated?
  3. Check dates - How recent are the incidents?
  4. Read the notes - Understand the context of each incident
  5. Verify prior actions - Were previous warnings given?

During One-on-Ones

Use discipline history in development conversations:
  • Acknowledge improvement if infractions have stopped
  • Discuss patterns if issues are recurring
  • Set clear expectations for the future

For Performance Reviews

Discipline history provides objective documentation:
  • Reference specific incidents with dates
  • Note improvement over time
  • Document ongoing concerns if applicable

Viewing discipline records does not notify the employee or create a visible log to other users.
Export functionality depends on your organization’s setup. Contact your administrator for records needed for HR or legal purposes.
Points may have expired. The point total reflects only active (non-expired) points, while the infraction list shows all documented incidents.
