The answer is simply to layoff the worker. (How To Fire Employees)

Before firing employee, there was so much stress. Now everyone is working much better.

The answer is simply to layoff the worker. This is true if your only choice is to sack right away. o No mention of unlawful reasoning. You can easily insert new information as it becomes available within your sacking workers manual. You shouldn't lay off a worker immediately for bad performance. The caution here is to do the termination in a civil and calm manner, being careful not to do anything or say anything that might be construed as defamation of character. Otherwise the bad employee may start encouraging his coworkers to engage in this behavior. The worst mistake a separating boss can make involves writing the dismissal letter. Then you can use that sample notice each time you need a good one when making a sacking for cause. While you don't need a layoff letter, you'll need a release. Step 4: Send the jobholder home with pay for 3 firm days.

Training all managers and supervisors in the accurate and fair evaluation of staff will ensure that you'll avoid the problems coming from wrongful dismissals. So again, this will help stop claims of improper layoff and upgrade your court defense. You can give the jobholder notice you're dimissing him. Often, problem employees realize that you are starting to build a case against them and they know that they will soon be on the chopping block if their productivity doesn't increase.
