A warning in an employment relationship 

When an employer gives a warning, it signifies their belief that the employee has committed some form of misconduct or is not performing their job as the employer rightfully expects. The law mandates that before an employee can be terminated, they must be given a warning and an opportunity to rectify their behavior. 

Even if the warning may seem unjustified, the employee who receives a warning should take it seriously. When an employer expresses dissatisfaction with an employee, the threat of termination arises. Hence, it is advisable to consider objectively how one can amend their actions. Whether there was a valid reason for the warning or not, it is essential to approach the situation rationally. It is also recommended to discuss the situation with our legal team.
