We are going to learn the proper way of writing a warning letter to some who violated the conduct code at the workplace, school, and other places.
Verbal Warning

How to write the letter
- Begin with the statement. Inform the user about their misbehavior and the category it falls in.
- If the warning letter is a followup to a verbal warning, remind them of that.
- Hint to the person that evidence or witnesses exist but don't reveal too much info at this time, only later when necessary.
- Explain to the person which code they violated and how.
- Request from the person not to repeat the offense and adhere to the rules.
- Explain to the person violator what happens if they continue to misbehave.
- If necessary, demand ramifications based on the situation (apology etc..).
