Quizplus · Accepted Answer

While public punishment may serve as a deterrent, it can lead to feelings of humiliation and resentment in the employee being disciplined. Additionally, providing an opportunity for the employee to explain their behavior can help identify underlying issues that may be contributing to their performance issues and address them in a constructive manner. Therefore, a more effective disciplinary action would involve private and respectful communication with the employee.
