A formal disciplinary letter issued to an employee by a management official who has authority to discipline the employee. The Letter of Reprimand is the least severe formal penalty. It is a disciplinary action - not an adverse action - because the causes are due to delinquency or misconduct personally attributable to the employee. The Reprimand is used to correct significant misconduct or delinquency and repeated lesser offenses. It is a severe disciplinary action that should be adequate for many disciplinary situations which require an action more severe than a written or oral admonishment.
