If you have an Hr department Manager, this person should do the review. Keep in mind that this is an area where the former worker can take advantage of you. It is easier to keep track of your workforce in a small business. If you were the ex-employee's supervisor, you'll likely be your own "star witness." Since you have had the most dealings with the jobholder, you're the best individual to testify about his behavior. Further, you must share relevant information with your team members in a timely way. It is a crucial part of the layoff process. By not handling the employee suitably, your problems will only get worse. If, after plenty of warnings and discussion with the jobholder, he does not stop his problem behavior then you have no choice but to terminate employment. And you'll learn how to do a professional inquest in the next section. Including the termination reason is a dignified move. If the troublemaker is a poor performer, you must right away put him into escalating discipline and fire him when his productivity doesn't increase.

First, the worker desires to take lawsuit but you have a good chance a legal counselor won't take his case or the jury will rule in your favor. Do what is right and remove the disgruntled employee from your employees before you're sorry you didn't. This sample discipline notification should obviously define the prior issues with the employee and then spell out the reformatory action taken in the second paragraph. As you review these letters, you must notice the medium-risk notices ask for a release of claims while the low-risk letters don't.
