usually the enquiry officer will fix the date of enquiry. But there is nothing wrong in the disciplinary authority fixing the first hearing date of the enquiry. But the subsequent dates has to be fixed by the enquiry officer.

Dear,

 

  it is  better always good to give /serve notice  to the employee who  misbheved during  working  hours, in company ,  after getting  his reply he may be let off with warning if it is first time or otherwise  to impose penaly  by cutting the wage  which is  1 financial loss to hm for his misconduct 2.  wage is saved for company  for  a day

Fixing of date of inquiry by the Disciplinary Authority is an extraneous pressure amounts to curtailing judicious discretion of the IO to fix the dates as per mutual convenience of himself, charged officer and presenting officer. This is violation of opportunity.

First enquiry date can be fixed by the disciplinery authority but the next date shall be fixed by the EO at the end of the process on that particular day of enquiry.

Even though the delequent employee has every right to ask for adjournment hence it is not a big issue. The delequent employee can write a letter to the EO directly and ask for adjournment and after that the EO shall be fixing the date, time & venue etc.

partially agreed with Mr Kameshwar Rao.  Even first date need not be fixed by DA.  It shows intention of curtailing discretion of the IO .
