Employment Problem Solving
In a single week’s trading you will make hundreds of decisions that will impact on your business. Some of these decisions will be simple and cause you no stress at all; some however will be more complex, particularly those that involve your staff and more particularly “hire and fire” decisions. We have identified the most critical risky decision-making areas for retailers. We have prepared guidelines and procedures that we believe will enable you to make your difficult decisions with less risk or even avoid the problem completely by taking the right action at an earlier point.
