Date Issued: 12/09/1986
Purpose
A program to outline policy and procedures to deal with non-culpable employee work performance problems.
Policy
This policy deals with non-culpable or blameless performance problems where the means for resolving such problems exists at work.
The employer recognizes that, on occasion, the work performance of some employees falls below the minimum standards of their positions due to factors which may be beyond their control. While such behaviour is non-culpable, it is detrimental to the effective and efficient delivery of services to the people of Saskatchewan.
While recognizing that such deficient performance has its basis in non-culpable factors, it is the employer's policy that such performance must be restored to a fully satisfactory level. The employer is committed to providing reasonable assistance to such an employee in his/her efforts to achieve this objective.
Application
All employees appointed under The Public Service Act.
Guidelines
Procedures, guidelines and training material regarding the application of this policy are available from Employee and Labour Relations.
Authority
