Why do some employees get coached while others getpunished for the same mistake?
In this week’s episode of #AskHR, our question is: Why the double standard in workplace discipline? It’s a topic many experience but few want to admit.
We’ll talk through:
• Why unequal discipline happens
• The hidden biases and blind spots in enforcement
• What fair and consistent accountability should look like
• How employees can speak up without fear
From favoritism to fear-based decisions and HR blind spots, we’re calling out the uncomfortable truths behind inconsistent practices.
Whether you're an employee navigating unclear consequences or someone who's witnessed the double standard firsthand, this episode gives you tools, perspective, and language to advocate for fairness that doesn't depend on your title.
Fairness is a leadership standard. And every voice, including yours, deserves it.
