Suspension is a common [[practice]] in the workplace for being in violation of company [[policy]]. Work suspensions occur when a [[business]] [[manager]] or supervisor deems an [[action]] of an employee, whether [[intentional]] or unintentional, to be a violation of [[policy]] that should result in a [[course]] of punishment, and when the employee's [[absence]] during the suspension period does not hurt the company. This [[form]] of [[action]] hurts the employee because s/he will have no hours of work for the period s/he is suspended for and therefore will not get paid, unless the suspension is with pay, or is challenged and subsequently overturned. Some jobs, which pay on salary, may have paid suspensions, in which the affected worker will be barred from coming to [[work]] but will still receive pay. Generally, suspensions are deemed most [[effective]] if the affected worker remains unpaid. Suspensions are usually given after other means of [[counseling]] [[statements]] have been exhausted, but some violations may result in [[immediate]] suspension. Suspensions are tracked, and any [[number]] of them, even one may prevent one from receiving raises, bonuses or promotions, or could [[cause]] dismissal from the company.

Suspension clauses are common components of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collective_bargaining collective bargaining] [[agreement]]s. Suspensions may be [[challenged]] by employees in unionised organisations through the filing of a grievance.

Suspension on full pay can also be used when an employee needs to be removed from the workplace to avoid prejudicing an [[investigation]]. This is used not as a punishment, but in the employer's best interest. For example, a police officer who shoots a [[person]] while on [[duty]] will be given a suspension with pay during the investigation not to punish but to enable the department to carry out its investigation. Most officers involved in such shootings end up receiving no punishment.[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Suspension_%28punishment%29]
