Written Warning Employee: Jordan Lee Date: August 20, 2026 Issue: Repeated tardiness This letter serves as a formal written warning regarding repeated tardiness over the past month. On three occasions you arrived more than 30 minutes after your scheduled start time without prior notice. We expect immediate and sustained improvement in punctuality. Failure to do so may result in further disciplinary action, up to and including termination of employment.
