Alternative discipline and last chance agreements give federal employees specific incentives and ways to achieve acceptable conduct and performance. Just as importantly, they provide assurance that managers can take action if employees fail to meet agreed-upon requirements.

But to use these tactics, agencies must develop clear expectations and consequences of success -- or failure -- and management must be prepared to provide proper follow-up.

This 90-minute audio conference explains how to develop alternative discipline and last chance agreements to give employees the opportunity to correct conduct or performance deficiencies before they lead to discipline or poor performance records.

You'll benefit from expert guidance on the dos and don'ts of alternative discipline and LCAs in future MSPB cases, as well as how to:

• Work with employees and supervisors to develop clear and detailed admissions of unacceptable conduct or performance
• Involve supervisors and employee representatives to ensure the best acceptable outcome
• Use unilateral statements of expectation if employees won't accept agreements
• And much more!
