Removing An Employee

We don't want to terminate an employee. It's an expensive and disruptive ordeal. But sometimes it is necessary. When that happens we must respond in a professional, dignified and swift manner. Do not allow emotions to get in the way. That is when we can make a mistake and say the wrong things. So sit down, take a deep breath and do a little research to prepare yourself. Here are a couple of informative articles.

• How to Fire an Employee the Legal Way: 6 Termination Guidelines

• What to Say When You Fire an Employee

Equally as important is to be sure not to fire someone illegally (Illegal Reasons for Firing Employees). When in doubt seek the counsel of your legal aid.
