Don&#8217;t wait until behavior is already occurring. Be sure that all employees understand the rules and productivity expectations up front. These might include such things as failing to disclose arrest records, lying about past employment, insubordination, excessive absence\u2014and what constitutes \u201cexcessive\u201d\u2014and other issues that affect job performance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Give regular performance appraisals.\u00a0<\/strong>Evaluate employee work at least once a year and document deficiencies in performance versus your expectations or the actual job requirements. When an employee comes up short, discuss ways to improve and give the employee clear steps and goals to help them improve.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Be sure of your standing.\u00a0<\/strong>Unless you are the company owner, know your employer&#8217;s rules about firing someone. \u2022There may be specific steps you are required to take to fire someone &#8212; even if the employee is not doing their job. Never undermine your employer and risk your own position by taking such actions without informing your own supervisor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Act quickly when problems are noticed.\u00a0<\/strong>Be sure to communicate performance problems as soon as you are aware of them, and coach your employee on how to improve. Sit down with your employee and discuss with them the problem. Ask them what they think is causing their performance to be substandard, and offer suggestions for their improvement.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Keep a written record of these conversations.\u00a0<\/strong>Either have them sign a form that covers what was discussed, or send them a formal email, or both. If sending an email, ask your employee to reply to it when they\u2019ve read it, both to acknowledge receipt and to give them an opportunity to respond in writing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Focus on the problem.<\/strong>\u00a0When you counsel an employee, focus on the facts, without editorial comment. &#8220;You have failed to meet deadlines on 11 out of the past 16 assignments&#8221; is appropriate. &#8220;You&#8217;re slacking off&#8221; is inappropriate.<\/p>\n<p><strong>\u0397 Manager\u2019s Office<br \/>\n<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>HR Team<\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ways to Fire an Employee Business Advices Set Expectations.\u00a0Discuss with your employees any behavior that could be grounds for immediate&hellip;<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":4463,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":""},"categories":[102],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v15.7 -
