Common disciplinary proceedings permit joint action against multiple employees through a designated authority with defined penalty and procedural limits.

Common disciplinary proceedings may be ordered for two or more employees involved in the same case by the authority competent to impose dismissal on all of them. Where different authorities hold that power, the highest authority may order joint proceedings with the others' consent. The order must designate the disciplinary authority, specify its penalty competence, and identify the applicable procedural route.
