SA01 - Standards and Discipline Flashcards
Standards
Standards are “morals, ethics, or habits established by an authority, custom, or an individual as acceptable behavior.”
Discipline
Proper discipline shows a person where they failed, how to correct the behavior and encourages them to retry with success.
Preventive discipline
stops a problem from happening before it starts. Examples of preventive discipline are: safety briefings before three-day weekends, rewards, and training/education.
Corrective (or rehabilitative) discipline
restores discipline and/or improves performance. These are the measures you take once someone falls below standards and you must return him or her to the level of acceptability (the standard.)
Counseling (whether verbal or written)
the first step in the PDP because it encourages two-way communication.
