For Class E violations, what is the maximum disciplinary action that can be taken?

The maximum disciplinary action for Class E violations is specifically defined within the Standards of Conduct and is intended to hold individuals accountable while providing a structured approach to discipline. A 5-day suspension serves as a punitive measure that aligns with the severity of Class E violations, emphasizing the importance of compliance and the expectation of upholding standards.

This duration allows for a sufficient consequence that is serious enough to deter future infractions without being excessively punitive in relation to the nature of Class E violations. Such an approach balances accountability with the potential for rehabilitation, ensuring individuals have an opportunity to reflect on their actions and work towards compliance moving forward.
