In labour law terms, no warning has been issued.Just another quesion: the verbal warning is valid for 6 months. After this time period, would the boss have to review the allegations and report back to the employee to say "yes, it has improved"? How will he know if he is on the right track? Can he ask for a "re-evaluation of his attitude" in about 1 months time? Surely there must be constant feedback so that he knows he is improving, although he does not know what he is supposed to be improving on?
In reality he knows something is cooking. I don't know how he should proceed. I know what I would do; I would sign up with Solidarity and keep them in the loop. One thing I can guarantee; this is not the last he is going to hear of this and by the sounds of things he is no youngster and getting other work is not going to be a cinch.
