Employee Disciplinary Procedures, CDC
From the Introduction section of the Auditor's report:
Recent studies criticized the department's process for handling employee disciplinary matters. For example, the Office of the Inspector General (inspector general)-an independent agency that reports directly to the governor and conducts audits, investigations, and special reviews of the State's youth and adult correctional agencies-criticized the department's handling of employee disciplinary matters in two reports dated October 2001 and March 2002. Furthermore, the department is currently involved in a number of employment-related lawsuits and appeals at the State Personnel Board (board). Concerns from the Legislature regarding the department's management and treatment of its employees and the legal expenses it incurs from employment-related matters led to the request for the current audit.
