This episode focuses on the principle of "corrective rather than punitive" discipline. Corey argues that while arbitrators often interpret "corrective discipline" as synonymous with "progressive discipline," true corrective action requires management to actively help employees improve their performance rather than simply issuing escalating punishments. Corey emphasizes management's obligation to manage, using examples like an employee disciplined for incorrectly filling out a form without being given proper instruction and another punished for unauthorized overtime without management investigating the root cause. He advocates for union stewards to hold management accountable to the higher standard of corrective discipline and provides specific contractual provisions and arbitration precedent to support this argument.
