Beware Your Own Employees!
Page 2
I've had employees go much farther with the trouble they caused me. I once had an office assistant steal a check and try to cash it for $5000. I had one employee that had been issued a gas card use it to buy gas and then he sold the gas to some friends. I once found a pot plant growing out of one of our bathroom sinks. I've had employees steal tools. And for me the biggest offense of all is when they stop doing their jobs. This applies to the salesmen I've had in the past. They go out day after day and bring in less than I'm paying them. I know salesmen can have bad weeks or months but it's the customers that usually let me know when they hadn't seen they're rep and can't get a hold of them.
The point I'm getting at is that as a business grows larger and more people are needed to keep it going, you have to be aware that while you may have your employees best interests in mind they might not have yours but they most certainly have their own best interests in mind also. And because you are only one person you can't watch them all forever.
Businesses that have incorporated diverse training into their strategies have found that the benefits of incorporating diverse talent into the workforce not only improves productivity, but also creates a well balanced pool of knowledge, experience and creativity. Promoting diversity within the workplace can produce lasting results. Results that will reverberate within your business for many years to come. Promoting cultural and ethnic diversity in the workplace should begin before you hire even your first employee. You need to be aware of its strength and the strength that can be brought to your organization by embracing it!
