Does any of this sound familiar? Harassed transport manager: "That's it! Don't let me see you around here any more!" Truculent driver: "Does that mean you're firing me?"

When it comes to dismissing employees there's a right and a wrong way. Unfortunately, too many managers still end up trying to dismiss someone in the heat of the moment. In this edition of Employment Bulletin we'll show you how to get the message through to under-performers and how to handle a dismissal properly and, above all, fairly.
