    There are steps laid down in Legislation for the dismissal of staff by employers.

    To NOT follow those steps ... leaves the employer open to legal action against them ... if they don't do it correctly.

    Large (ex) employer payouts have featured in the various News media often. It's not a new or unusual thing.

    But it doesn't help the respective ex-employee find work afterwards. Nor does it allow that ex-employee go straight on a benefit either ...

    Payouts don't make the ex-employee's actions right either ...

    We had a professional disputes claimant person at my work this year. Easiest job in the factory, a line filler.
    He got the job via an employment agency, worked really well till he got permanent position, ( after 90 days).
    Then became an asshole to everyone in the factory,was deliberately late, damaged stock, deliberately placed stock in the wrong place.
    It took another three months for the management to get rid of him inside the legal process.
    He was trying to get an unfair dismissal, even admitted that was his intention to some of the staff on the shop floor.
    Be aware there are those who are out there doing this for a living, he admitted to me he had already scammed two other employers.

    You didn't read the writeup did you??? especially rhis part

    And Christchurch children's clothes store manager Koren Sullivan was sacked after she received four warnings - including a final warning - for a range of offences, including ignoring instructions, poor customer service and abusing her managers. She lost her job after her manager, Karla Martin, said Sullivan threw a roster book at her and said: "Actually get someone else to do my f-ing job, right here right now".

    The ERA ruled Sullivan never used the words "I resign" and her employer had seized the opportunity to get rid of her. She received $5053 in lost wages and $3000 for humiliation, loss of dignity and injury to feelings.



    The door really needs to swing both ways, it is near impossible to get rid of useless employees (which could explain how companies get so massive nowadays they can't fire the useless person so they gotta hire someone else to do their job for them).
    It needs to be made so good employees are still protected while making it much easier to get rid of the junk like those in the writeup.

    I'm simple. It's too complicated for me, far easier to just not bother.

    There's probably some really good employees that would've come in handy, but with the few arseholes in the mix it's just not worth the hassle.

    I have noticed that young people think it is OK to sit at work on the net when they are meant to be working. Something is going wrong out there batman.

    There is a member of this site with the sig ... "Some people are only alive because it's illegal to shoot them".

    KB anfem innit.

    Although I've come to realise that removing the person and ignoring the issue is tantamount to entrapment. To that end you fuckas get what you deserve from them fuckas. If you're not going to do anything about the issue, stop moaning about the problem.
