Thesis (MPA) --University of Limpopo, 2005 / Management of disciplinary measures is a delicate part of work programmes that
needs dedicated employees to handle. The personnel should be provided with acts,
rules and regulations, codes and work procedures to serve as guidelines during their
execution of their duties. In this research work, the participating workers indicated
some perceptions that could contribute towards poor service delivery, which include
tribalism, ethnicity etc. The Department of Agriculture should eliminate these
perceptions soon in order to achieve the set departmental goals. The personnel should
be encouraged to undergo various trainings so that they can be mentally empowered.
They should be exposed to libraries to get materials relevant to their work sphere.
Monitoring should be regular to ensure perfection within an institution. Employees
are of the opinion that training workshops are for specific group of workers and that
they are treated inequitably by the institution. Their future efforts are then
demoralized. Knowledge acquired from various literatures should be implemented
practically. The management and supervisors can gain knowledge about the various
disciplinary approaches such as supportive approach; disciplinary policy, which
indicates the steps to be followed when applying the disciplinary measures;
disciplinary system like the designing of a disciplinary action; and the techniques
such as the analyzing of the written institutional records and statement of discipline
related rules and procedures. All employees within an institution should take
discipline as reformative. Supervisors should where possible react positively in order
to bring balance between the workers and the employer. The treatment of employees
should develop positive attitudes such as the desire to work with, and not against,
their superiors. The data collected indicated that there are factors contributing towards
fair or unfair management of disciplinary measures. Good factors should be
encouraged and maintained whereas the negative ones should be addressed to avoid
delay in service delivery.
