D.C. Mun. Regs. tit. 8, r. 8-B1703
Each person in a sponsored program position shall be employed based on the assumption that the qualifications attested to by his or her educational level, references, and appropriate work experiences will enable that employee to carry out the functions and responsibilities of the position.
If the evaluation of a sponsored program employee by the immediate supervisor indicates that the person cannot perform the services called for by the contract, the employee shall be informed in writing by the immediate supervisor of the performance deficiencies. An employee shall have thirty (30) days to improve the quality of his or her performance.
If the supervisor determines that insufficient improvement is shown by the end of the thirty (30) day period, the employee may be removed from the position. A recommendation for dismissal shall be made by the program director to the appropriate vice president for approval.
The employee shall be entitled to an administrative review of a dismissal decision by the President, or a designee, and may offer evidence in his or her defense.
