What corrective action can be expected if a cardholder repeatedly fails to comply with policies?

The expectation of progressive discipline in response to repeated non-compliance with policies underscores the gradual approach that organizations often take when addressing performance issues. This method is designed to give cardholders the opportunity to improve their behavior while also holding them accountable for their actions.

Progressive discipline typically starts with a warning and may escalate to more severe consequences if the non-compliance behavior continues. This approach allows for a structured way of reinforcing compliance with policies, ensuring that cardholders understand the seriousness of their actions and providing them with the chance to correct their behavior before facing more serious penalties.

In contrast, options such as a minor warning or a verbal reprimand may not address the repeated nature of the issue adequately. While mandatory training sessions could be beneficial in some contexts, they do not inherently include the accountability aspect that progressive discipline provides, which emphasizes a documented series of steps that can include warnings, training, and ultimately more significant repercussions if necessary.
