Well now, sitting around looking to the internet for fantastic job openings without annual contract renewals. Found a few, they included either bad benefits, and good salary, or hidden salary, moderate benefits, and terrible hours. Or for the most part any combination of the previous!
Went to phase two with one, just to see!
Mr. Drew we would like to place you into situational exercises to see how you handle work place issues. Sure, fine by me. (What could be more difficult than a 32 man platoon, with 60% still teenagers?)
Situation background: You have an employee who is a single dad, two kids, is a strong worker, and has great social skills. His name is Mark, he has been with the company 3 years, and has taken some additional company training in order to better himself. He is favored by both workers and management alike, and can handle limited supervisory tasks, and is a team player. He is your goto man for powered machinery.
Situation company policy: It is the utmost of priority that we maintain a vigilant worker safety policy. Any safety violation will be documented. The first violation will be recorded as such, the employee will be advised, and a performance evaluation will be conducted. The second safety violation will be recorded and reviewed by management immediately. If the offence is the same in nature the employee will be removed from the work place and placed on saftey violation release from work immediately.
Situation: You are complete with your employee file review, meeting of your supervisors, and are conducting inter action interviews with employees. While in the powered machinery section you spot Mark at his station, what is unique is Mark has his safety goggles attached, but not in position to protect his eyes. You recall from your file review Mark has a safety violation. Prior to conducting your introduction you call your HR assistant to pull Marks file, and review his safety violation. During your employee meeting, a young female employee brings to your attention that Mark has his goggles up. While making a slow deliberate move to Marks station, your assistant calls back with the violation history. Just 45 days ago Mark was in direct violation of the company safety ploicy. Mark was retrained in the company safety policy, and provided a new set of eye safety goggles.
Mr. Drew, how will you handle this situation?
I'll post my reply later, it's way to long to add it here!
IW's, how would you handle this situation?
