Why you should use a professionally written disciplinary appeal letter
A disciplinary appeal letter is useful if you’ve faced disciplinary action at work and you want to appeal the decision.
It’s important to be precise about why you want your employer to review their decision. A good disciplinary appeal letter will make it clear why you think the outcome was unjust.
It’s also useful to formalise your disagreement at this stage in case you want to make a claim at Tribunal later.
Examples of when to use a disciplinary appeal letter
There are a few scenarios where a disciplinary appeal letter is useful in solving your employment issues. Here are some examples:
Josephine has been dismissed but feels that this was too harsh a penalty for what she has done.
She therefore sends a disciplinary appeal letter to her employer.
Marta has been issued with a final written warning.
However, at the meeting where she was issued with the warning, she was not informed of the allegations against her or given any time to prepare.
She therefore sends a disciplinary appeal letter to her employer.
How to use a disciplinary appeal letter template
Writing a good appeal against a disciplinary decision letter may be quite important for your case. To do this, you should:
- write your letter
- send the disciplinary appeal letter to your employer
- wait for your employer to come back to you
- take a note of any deadlines your employer has set under their disciplinary procedure (if this exists)
- diarise to chase your employer if they don’t come back to you on time.

What our customers say about us
Valla are excellent
I genuinely believe they helped guide me to the best possible outcome for my specific circumstances. They are a choir of angels; I wouldn't have been able to consider going through the processes involved with my experience without their support.
Excellent low-cost employment tribunal guidance
I have just won my employment tribunal case for unfair dismissal, and I'm not sure if I would have been able to do it without Valla! Katie and Danae were absolutely brilliant in helping me prepare for the tribunal, prepare certain documents, and help me to feel confident in my case! I would highly recommend Valla to anyone who is representing themselves in an employment tribunal case! 10/10 for me!
Valla has been a lifesaver for me
They are so helpful and on top of that, everyone has been so nice. I really felt that they emphasised with what I was going through. I will be using them from now until my tribunal issue is settled.
