The answer is embedded within you’re query.
How about non-technical issues in training at OO? Do people routinely get sent home for uniform/dress code violations or for not being sufficiently respectful of their instructors? Or for visible tattoos, being 30 seconds late to class, etc.?

Disruptive behavior within the class, and disrespect to the instructor should be grounds for immediate termination.
Notwithstanding traffic or an accident on the route between the hotel and training facility.... no excuse for being tardy. It’s a sign of disrespect to those in your class, and those who invited you to training.
