The most fun part of being a supervisor or manager is to dismiss employees. Regardless of how terrible your employees do, it is not easy to say, "We are stopping your employment" looking for someone who is facing you. It does not matter how many times you have done it. When you stop the employment of someone, you bring a big change in your life. He probably has something I do not want, and it may affect not only my family but also myself.
But even if that is not the case, termination may be your only choice. An employee who seems to be potentially full will "retire" at work and will decide not to meet your expectations. Employees who need to attend within the designated time, walk every time you feel satisfied, work when you feel better, some people are not working in the workplace. There are thousands of scenarios, but the final result is the same. It is necessary to move this person from your office.
Identify problems that will soon contact your employees
When I worked as an employee relation manager of Fortune 100 company, I frequently received calls from employees' supervisors who did not meet expectations. Listen to your boss and ask how long the performance was missing. "Oh, about 6 months, maybe a bit longer," was not an unusual reaction. 6 months? I asked the supervisor a bit more, but they acknowledged that they are contacts facing employees. Some people wanted to get the benefit of doubt. They thought that employees just need time. Some supervisors thought things would be better if they leave only employees. (This will not happen!)
As soon as employees are struggling, it is important to sit private and speak your opinion, even if they do not recognize or understand employees are struggling. Let employees know what you expect of him and what he actually did. Please explain how he fits your expectations. Schedule follow-up · coaching and counseling sessions. Please let employees know that you are in the corner. You make him succeed. I urge him to ask a question. Begin with all positive guidance and counseling sessions with positive feedback. Discuss places for improvement. End the session with a positive enhancement.
Put a lack of work on writing
If your employees are not going to meet your expectations regardless of employment, attendance, or behavior, please fill out these shortcomings in writing. A Performance improvement plan (PIP) It is an excellent tool to communicate the expectations, the criteria are not met, the measures to be taken immediately, and the results on not satisfying those expectations. I signed a supervisor, an employee (if you want to sign it, it is not mandatory) and created a PIP for the supervisor in the form of a memo signed by me. Employees received a copy regardless of whether they signed a PIP. The reason why I signed it was because I wanted to confirm that the big companies are totally consistent. In other words, I wanted to make sure that we handle all state employees the same way.
Employees were given a reasonable period for improvement. Sufficient time to expect performance, attendance, or change in behavior is often 30 days. If there is serious deterioration, you do not have to wait until the end of the period and then perform the next step. And at the end of the period, if the fault only partially corrects, you can extend the PIP so that employees do not slip back.
Clarify that at the beginning of employment, grounds for immediate suspension that serves as the basis for the Constitution
There were many stories about progressive discipline. Progressive discipline may be appropriate if employees are generally lacking in performance or attendance is slightly less than a star. However, the only appropriate response may be immediate termination. Although there are various constituent elements which are the basis of immediate termination, here are some thoughts.
* Possibility of firearms and knives (other than pocket knives) of company property (company parking lot can be included in the definition of company property).
* Physical assault against other employees or visitors regarding company property
* Possession and / or sale of regulated substances without effective prescriptions on company property
* The threat of violence against visitors to other employees and company real estate
* Sexual harassment (In the case of real sexual violence or inappropriate contact, immediate dismissal is common, PIP may be issued to employees to make inappropriate remarks)
* Watch child pornography with company computers and other equipment.
* Threats to other employees based on race, religion, nationality etc (State law violation and title VII are very seriously taken).
* Commit a felony that an employee can not work at a company. (I worked at a financial services company or a financial services company that can not hire or hire employees convicted for crimes such as robbery, theft, embezzlement etc. To your company If there are restrictions of this type to be applied,
Exit process
Your employees were taught and consulted. Give him a PIP and if there is improvement it was temporary. There are no other roads left, but there is no end. Getting a second opinion is always a good idea before starting the process. In my company I worked, I needed my opinion and signature before dismissal took place. This policy was formulated by a senior vice president of human resources to ensure that someone in California has not terminated while Georgia employees only received PIP for the same reason.
Once you have signed the document, please make sure that you are ready to hand over the final check of the employee at the time of dismissal. In states like California, this is mandatory. Even if you do not need to do so, I encourage you to give money to employees before leaving. It will be a long way to reduce his anxiety about his future, making at least a little palatable finish.
Does it change the day you chose to conclude? Some people like to wait at the weekend. My preference was to finish on Monday, or very late, Thursday morning. If the employee was dismissed on Friday, he is thinking about all the weekend as to how he was dismissed. We call it "termination", but the word that disappears in our head is "dismissed". If employees tend to fall into some retaliation or depression, the situation may worsen after the end on Friday. On the other hand, if an employee is dismissed at the beginning of the week, there is a reason to wake up the next day, apply for unemployment, and start searching for a new job.
The closing must be done in a private room. I generally used a conference room near the entrance or exit of the building. If your building is not configured this way, please find a private room to do the closing. There is compassion enough to lose your job without listening to people around the world or watching you. Members of human resources or another manager should be in your room as a witness.
Supervisors should remind employees that their employees have discussed their own shortcomings in a short period of time and that the situation has not improved. The director tells the employee "I decided to end your employment". Please use the word "we" instead of "I". It is neither personal nor hostile. Please do not allow employees to answer about this. I will explain that this decision has already been made and I will not discuss the decision. Please let employees know that you do not discuss dismissal with anyone and respect your privacy.
The supervisor must arrange for someone (either an assistant manager or a personnel officer) to retire from the employee's desk, whatever he must bring with him. If the employee is a woman, she will want a wallet. It is not a good idea to let employees come back to the desk. I have witnessed that the director had too many accidents to make employees collect their stuff.
A supervisory authorities said that employees will act with a professional attitude and not worry. After 5 minutes, I was called to the workspace because the employee was screaming over our lungs about our inequality. Why was she dismissed for nothing why, and how does she prosecute us all? In this particular case, I was pleased to see most of the other employees leaving this woman, but workplace confusion was devastating.
I will inform employees that I will put together your affiliation and let them ship to employee's address. We will confirm the address that the employee wishes to send belongings. When the tradition is clogged, pack it for one person and let another person inventory inventory. The last thing you need is to condemn the former employee stole the Rollex left in the drawer. You may laugh, but it is known to happen.
Please request a badge or other company property (company pager, company mobile phone, company credit card) after the employee has submitted the final check and dismissal procedure document. Escort the employee from the building. Immediately after the former employee left now, certain security confirms that this person no longer is hired by the company. If an employee swipes a badge to access the company's parking lot or building, it will invalidate the employee's badge for certain facilities and security. Company's credit card needs to be canceled immediately like mobile phone number and pager number.
Other employees unjustly ask what happened. It is not unusual for a retired employee to call a part of a former colleague and ask what he said about him. The appropriate response is as follows. "John Doe is no longer with the company." When asked why, "I will not talk about other employees." If you hear an employee's gossip on retired employees, you are encouraged to return to work It is recommended.
One last caveat: If for some reason you believe before and after dismissal, it is likely that employees will retaliate in some form. Please do not keep it secret. Please tell me your own boss and human resources. While participating in termination there were times when there were security outside the door. I did not feel like I did an excessive reaction.
When I worked at Boeing, guards gave me a very Sage advice. Whenever I had to participate in dismissal, he checked out the room where dismissal would take place. When I first saw him take off the stapler from his desk, I just smiled. I stopped laughing. "What should I do if I pick up this and hit it in my head?" It was not a man before violence, but this never happened to me. "That's why I am sure it's safe, to see if it happens to you," he said.
I was not physically transformed or attacked, but my boss and I immediately thought that there was a possibility. Just watch the evening news and just ask about workplace violence. When we dismiss an employee with courtesy and respect, until retirement, we are on the way to securing the safety and security of the entire workplace.
