hi,
i guess the best way is to give her notice thats it. this will teach others a lesson of how to behave. just chill, i know hr should be friendly but they should also show authority, and demand respect.
she is going overboard.

I too had same experiance in my old firm.That person was playing a key role at that time in one important project. She used to come late to office....But we felt Punctuality is more important...I spoke to her two times about Late comings But no result... Finally i got good replacemant to her.......
I feel.............
Punctuality is an Internal Feeling That Every employee should have ...if a person is not Feeling that it does mean that they are not Interested at the Job what they are doing...Keeping such nuts wont give any thing to the compmay........................

IS SHE BEHAVING LIKE THIS FROM THE BEGNING.?THERE CAN BE A PERSONEL PROBLEM BECAUSE EVERYBODY NEEDS A JOB .ONE CAN BEHAVE IN THIS MANNER IF HE/SHE IS GOING THRW PSYCHOLOGICAL DISTURBANCE.



i am facing a very typical problem in my office for the last few months..... there is a lady employee in our office....she is a trainee in our company ..... from last few months am seeing that the employees are not maintaining time of coming office.so gave a notice to all and from that all obeyed my order..... but this girl kept on coming late......i warned her repeatedly..... and one day as i told that she answered me back " if am late u can take any step( you can deduct my half day salary) as i mentioned in the notice". i didnt say anythng.... that was over....

now last thursday she called me in the morning and told me that my mom is not well so i won't be coming.i told fine. then again on friday she called me said i wont b able to come as my mom is not well...then i said you have to come as for your absence our project is suffering...(she is handling a project alone)... she said ok am trying.... 1st half got over...i gv a call,she didnt take the call....i gave again a call and at that time she disconnected.....



today she came to my room.... with same attitude... (all has to come in my room to sign the register).. i asked why she did that last day.... n then gave the previous xamples too......after the conversation she left my room......

then i went to their room for some other work..... and didnt find her...asked her teammate.....he told she left office.....

then and there i called her.... at frst she didnt take the call then took.... and said i wont work etc etc...then i made her understand and she came back to office.



now what i want to knw from you all what should be my step to stop all these non-sense of walking out and etc.....

1) Ask her why.
2) Give her a verbal warning (official).
3) Give her a written warning after the next offence.
4) Sack her if she does it again.
You must take action before the others start taking the same attitude.

Sohini.....We need to be assertive in some cases.....As per your mails i see that you have done your homework.....you did not tell one things...is she good at her work and completing her job on time without any hassles....two things we can do in this case....
1) develop a parallel team of 2 members in the said area which she is working and maintain the backup
2) give her a week's notice with a disciplinary letter...no point wasting time on unproductive resources
One suggestion is you can be very good to employees and approachable, but at times you need to take a firm decision when things are going out of our hands....

As a HR Person YOU have to analyse the situation carefully, try u retain the staff .You have to analyse the person telling the truth or not.In IT industry ,we have to extract the work in a smart way.Then only we able to sustained and reduce the turn over ratio.
If her problem its true give privillage up to complete the project then u change her in to another team .if u not comfortable with her .Inform the management accordingly ,take the necessary steps according to the company policy

Agreed with PinnacleVidya. To addition to it, find out some1 who can handle the project, and handle other tasks as well and than let her resign. Being HR, Be Rational not emotional. Good Luck!!HR-Generalist

Well Sohini, after going through all conversation, I got it that u r helpless in that matter.
If the employee does not understand the rules and regulation of the organization he or she may spoil the other as well.
What I can suggest u in that case. You should try to prepare a back up of her, as you written she is handling project alone in that case u can not take action against her. And once you get some one who can replace her, give her notice and expel the dust from the company

Dear All,

Interesting matter................!

What I suggest is you should have a discussion with her and try to know her problem on personal basis....!

Always remember HR is never completed without personal touch...........! though we have to be professinol but it is required in our job..............!

What you say buddies.............!
