Depending on the circumstances, workplace injuries may warrant termination for workers who repeatedly fail to follow safety policies and procedures, even after thorough training and disciplinary action. However, consult with legal counsel before taking any adverse action.
As a first step, determine whether a worker is engaging in misconduct that is causing the incidents and whether there are adequate safety measures in place to reduce the risk of injury.
Then, investigate and document all workplace injuries to figure out the cause and proper response. Consider the severity of the incidents and any history of safety violations.
