An effective, comprehensive, and successful discipline program should contain the following elements: 

• Code of conduct. Employees should know the difference between expected and unacceptable behavior. Ideally, this should be in writing in a list of basic, general work rules or an employee handbook or other material provided to the employee. 
• Philosophy. Employees should know what you expect to achieve through disciplinary action.
• Knowledge of disciplinary punishments. Employees should know the penalty you will impose for common offenses of the code of conduct.
