When Do I Terminate Staff
To terminate or not to terminate, that is the question.
To terminate or not to terminate, that is the question.
After 21yrs in business, Phil still hates firing an employee, and now with the current laws and regulations, it is becoming increasingly difficult to get rid of an employee.
There are 3 zones that all workplaces and employers need to navigate. The No Go Zone, the grey zone, and the Ok Zone.
Not only are these 3 zones applicable to the firing of employees, but to the laws that can affect your business.
What are these zones and how do you safely navigate them?
One of the suggestions Phil offers is if in doubt ask an expert and get guidance. There are now hotlines available where you can ask for such advice.
As always, the rule of Measure Twice Cut Once becomes applicable, and if you cut wrong it can harm your company in the long run.
Another avenue that you can use is to reach out to the Coffee Commune.
Tune in and listen to Phil help you detangle some of the myths behind the laws and regulations that you must abide by, and helps put a light on some of the reasons how you can terminate staff, safely.

Entrepreneurship is a way of life and intelligence for me, not a title. Every project that I embark upon, my goal is to do it different or better than anyone else. It was this passion and entrepreneurial spirit that led me to start up my first business venture, a small coffee-roasting operation in the suburbs of Brisbane in 2002. I identified a gap in the coffee market. There was no local coffee company that successfully matched the quality of their products with excellent customer service and a strong brand, all at a reasonable price. This business grew from a start up to the largest of its kind in Australia before I sold it 12 years later. I strive to make my group of companies matter to customers. I want to ensure that I am relevant in the future am continually looking at innovative ways to do so. I am not limited by my available resources; I am continually looking to fill the void in the market to meet customer’s needs and solve problems. My mantra is ‘tomorrow better than today’. My goal is to continue building and improving and use our achievements to fuel our momentum and keep moving forward to bigger and better things. I never rest on the laurels of my success but continue to pursue new ventures through which to challenge myself, and seek opportunities to develop or share my skills. I continue to strive as a leader in my industry and as an entrepreneur, and am always challenging myself personally and professionally whilst ensuring to give back to community.
