During a disciplinary meeting, an employee should remain calm and composed, actively listen to the concerns being raised, and acknowledge any issues discussed.

An appeal meeting is held to review and potentially overturn a decision made during a disciplinary meeting, typically initiated by an employee who disagrees with the outcome or sanctions imposed. In contrast, a disciplinary meeting is conducted to address alleged misconduct or performance issues, where the employee is informed of the concerns and given a chance to respond before any decisions are made. Essentially, the former seeks to challenge a decision, while the latter focuses on determining the appropriateness of disciplinary actions.

Employees SHOULD be paid for mandatory meetings. If an employer calls for a mandatory meeting on an employee's day off, or not during his scheduled shift, it should be considered the same as being called in to work. Said employee has to give up his time as well as transportation costs to attend the meeting for which the employer can reprimand or retaliate, if the employee does not attend (mandatory meetings only). Thus, if an employer calls you in to a "mandatory" meeting, you should be REQUIRED to clock in. This protects the employer as well as compensates the employee for cost of transportation and giving up his free time.

if you are part of a Union refer to your bargaining agreement (contract). in my experience as a union president and steward most contracts give you five days to request a meeting with your immediate supervisor from the time that you would have knowingly known to have been part of a disciplinary action. Most contracts specifically state time limits for either party to request a meeting. The burden of requesting a meeting lies on the employee and the union in most cases. failure to follow these time limits will automatically lose your grievance if and when this situation goes in front of an arbitrator to handle. Arbitrators usually rule in favor of the employer unless there is/are gross violations on the part if the employer. if you are part of a union they will have a business agent and an attorney who will deal with this for you and your union. there are alot of variables on what can be done and not done during interviews. research the following web sites for internal interviews: NLRB (National labor relations Board) and POAM.net (police officers association of michigan).
