When Is The Right Time To Fire?
Layoffs can be painful, painful for both you and the team member affected. You might even actually try to pull strings to retain that employee.
But when it comes to firing, the story is a bit different, more brutal. And yes, firing an employee is necessary sometimes.
Here, you are simply letting the employee go based on their faults.
Unlike layoffs, where you terminate an employee's appointment when the issues are beyond your control, when is the best time to fire someone?
Do you keep giving them the benefit of the doubt?
Do you let them go after the first, second, or third strike?
Do you wait till the damage is done?
I’ll show you an article by Riia O'Donnell that has the best answers.
It presents two stories (hypothetical scenarios) that pose these questions and tells you how to know that it's time to fire an employee.
