Firing employees poses problems for any employer. For fast-growth entrepreneurs, this grim task is especially tricky:
Entrepreneurs must often make quick personnel decisions in a rapidly changing, high-stakes business environment. Yet proper termination procedures unfold in a slow, deliberate manner, with frequent reviews and multiple checkpoints along the way.What’s more, business owners rarely have time to document every little infraction. But unless you issue written warnings and add probationary memos to the employee’s personnel file, your decision to fire can trigger a wrongful discharge lawsuit.
