Do you have to give a verbal warning first? If your disciplinary policy states so, you can issue a written warning before verbal one. But generally, verbal warnings are the first step in a disciplinary procedure; and a written warning comes during or after.
Does a verbal warning need to be documented? A verbal warning should definitely be documented. Employers should keep the documentation of the verbal warning in their informal notes, and you as the employee should sign the documentation to indicate that you have received it.
If an employee refuses to sign the disciplinary report or warning, you might ask him or her to submit a signed rebuttal document instead. The rebuttal should reference the concerns raised in the written warning. This shows that the employee was notified about the problem.
This depends on the employer and their policy. Typically, a verbal warning will be in effect for three to six months, though the verbal warning letter may permanently stay on their employee record.

Always discuss issues with employees in a private office/room or video call (if your company is remote).State the issue clearly.Discuss the changes they should make.Provide a timeframe for correction.State consequences.Provide support for change.
Verbal warnings do not have to be documented. Managers should always document a verbal warning in some manner, such as in a manager's log or e-mailing themselves the specifics about the verbal warning.
The verbal warning is generally followed, in disciplinary action procedures, by a written verbal warning that begins the documentation of disciplinary action in the employee's personnel file. The written verbal warning provides the beginning of the documentation necessary for an organization to fire an employee.

A verbal warning typically comes before a written warning since a write-up at work tends to be more serious. If the same issue happens again after the verbal warning or the employee doesn't improve, you might issue a written warning. However, you can skip the verbal warning, especially for a serious issue.
