Non punitive incidents involving a subordinate employee of another supervisor will be brought to the attention of the employee's immediate supervisor.

• A. True
• B. False
• C. Not Applicable
• D. Not Sure

Answer: (A)

When an incident involves a subordinate who reports to a supervisor other than the one handling the case, it must be brought to that employee’s immediate supervisor. Sharing non punitive incidents in this way keeps the chain of command informed and ensures the right supervisor has the full context to support the employee, coach as needed, and maintain consistent handling across teams. It prevents information from getting siloed, helps with fair and transparent follow-up, and allows the supervising manager who directly oversees the employee to address any performance or conduct concerns appropriately, even if the issue isn’t punishable.
