Re: Confession Thread

I thought labor laws made it harder to fire people? At my last barista job I had a coworker who would always show up late and leave early and sometimes not even come in at all, and it took a few months before they could fire him because to my understanding there was some sort of red tape that they had to go through before they could do so even though he was violating all sorts of employee policies.

Depends on a combination of where exactly you live, how long the person's been there, and what the company policies wrt firing are.

If you're somewhere with at-will employment, you can be fired at any time for pretty much any reason. You might get damages if you can prove discrimination, but it's painfully difficult in those sorts of circumstances. Even in a lot of places where employment isn't generally at-will, it's still considered so for 90 days after hiring.

I don't know the exact details, I just know that my manager really wanted to fire him but couldn't because there was some sort of rule or law that prevented it. He'd been hired for more than 90 days, though, I do know that much.

I think it depends on how the company's structured. Some care more about following labor laws than others. Some have more oversight. For many, it's difficult to actually enforce those laws. If you're making minimum wage and you call in sick one too many times, and your boss fires you and cites the reason as you were two minutes late to work last Thursday, or forgot to wash your hands before putting on gloves, or something like that, who is going to pay for an investigation into that to see if it was really kosher?

I know that in my current company, you have to get written up multiple times and brought in for a meeting with the supervisor before they have grounds for firing you. They have to show that they've given you adequate warning and time to correct the behavior, essentially. I don't know whether that's company policy or due to labor laws, but I know that they can't just fire you for a single offense.

That's good. Some companies have more oversight and/or a vested interest in maintaining a reputation as a good employer.

If you don't mind my asking, what field are you in? I'm in healthcare right now and it's definitely harder to fire people from my current employer, but I think health care is a very different environment from the service industry.
