A progressive discipline system communicates unacceptable behavior and responds to a series of offenses with increasing forcefulness. This means that the severity of the consequences increases with each subsequent offense, serving as a deterrent to further violations. It does not necessarily involve peer reviews, mediation, or arbitration (option A), nor is it always a four-party process involving the employee, union, company, and courts (option B). It is not necessarily a speedy process (option D) and may involve subjective judgment calls by management (option E).
