This is my 2nd employee. The first one I am going to have to fire.
It’s due to a lack of effort. Phones and music are allowed due to the job being monotonous. Every time I pass by their office they quickly get off the phone.
I can tell when someone is trying or not with this specific job. Also, I have asked and stated to ask me any questions if needed. Expectations are clear.
This is the 5th day they are working for me. Do I need documentation?
You can provide a locker for the phone and include a policy in your hiring packet that phones are not allowed. Headphones with iPod should be OK.
