A counseling statement is a form of verbal or written counseling given to employees in the workforce who have violated a company policy. Counseling statements serve as warnings for violations, which are generally used as a way to improve the employee's performance. Counseling statements generally include the exact violation and how one can prevent committing that violation in the future. Too many counseling statements in a job can eventually result in termination of employment.

Common reasons for counseling statements in the workforce: not finishing one's assignments/tasks, unexcused absences or tardies, loss of money (such as cashiers), insubordination. Different jobs have different ways of writing and announcing counseling statements.
