But you don't have to separate for stupid (Severance)

A new concept in employee termination and discipline

But you don't have to separate for stupid or wrongful reasons. If the situation has failed to upgrade or has not improved to acceptable standards, you should write the firing memorandum. You must remember embezzlement is a serious offense and dismissing that person is generally the only move you can make. (When you're not the fired worker's supervisor, be sure you bring the employer as a witness.) *Frequent and unexplained absences from work. I think you would make a wonderful full-time mother." This is a clearly an wrongful comment which will enrage the jobholder. According to our business policy, I'll be placing a copy of this oral notice into your permanent employees file.".

If you can't get rid of the insubordinate individual and he won't change, then you, as the employer, must change. If it's based on the work productivity of the individual's entire department that you're laying off — then say those. It can do damage to the morale in the office or work environment. In particular, the employee will try to argue: It shows you tried multiple times to correct the employee's behavior. Insubordination occurs when an employee intentionally disobeys a superior level staff member's directive. First, when you're firing for overwhelming misbehavior, you must sack the day after the 3-day suspension whether this is Friday or not. Keep in mind that this is an area where the former worker can take advantage of you. However if the jobholder still refuses then you need to appropriately and decisively layoff the worker.
