This type of reprimand is used for several reasons. It allows supervisors to express their concerns respectfully, and issuing the warning is respected by both the person receiving it and by other employees. It also allows the manager to attempt to correct a problem without formally documenting it so that an incident does not go on an employee&#8217;s permanent record.<\/p>\n<p>A written reprimand is supported by a document that is given to the employee. Your Department Head must approve a reprimand before providing it to an employee.<\/p>\n<h4><strong><span class=\"TextRun SCXW192076157 BCX9\" lang=\"EN-IN\" xml:lang=\"EN-IN\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW192076157 BCX9\">Things you should remember during an oral reprimand:<\/span><\/span><span class=\"EOP SCXW192076157 BCX9\" data-ccp-props=\"{&quot;201341983&quot;:0,&quot;335559685&quot;:720,&quot;335559739&quot;:160,&quot;335559740&quot;:240}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/strong><\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li><span class=\"TextRun SCXW113291023 BCX9\" lang=\"EN-IN\" xml:lang=\"EN-IN\" data-contrast=\"none\"><span class=\"NormalTextRun SCXW113291023 BCX9\">When an employee has committed multiple violations during a single incident, cite all the violations in one reprimand.
