Dealing with poor work culture from Employees.

Dealing with poor work culture from Employees.

Poor work ethic and culture is a major challenge that businesses silently grapple with, whether remotely or in the workplace. It even tends to turn some employers into very mean people.

Workers show up late at work, drag feet to get things done, hardly reply to emails, fail at deliverables repeatedly, some keep making excuses to travel for one occasion or the other at the expense of the organization, and so on.

As much as it is important to be flexible as an employer, it is more important that you don’t unknowingly indulge the fundamental problem of poor work culture.

You need to design guidelines and processes that will help workers improve their work ethic and discipline over time and those who are unwilling to improve should be eased out.

If you create penalties for late coming and other issues, follow through with implementing those penalties so that your people don’t take your systems and processes for granted.

At a restaurant brand we manage, one staff had the habit of always making something different from what the client ordered thereby wasting resources. We implemented the penalty of salary deduction for two months to replace the materials that were wasted. He does not repeat the mistake any more.

You may be scared of losing those who really know the job, but indulging a bad attitude to work will cost your business greater harm eventually.

Be fair but also be firm.
