Home VHS: Caring For Your Employees

Hi there. I'm Marcia O'Donnell.

If you're watching this, you may have been treating your employees a little poorly.

But we all make mistakes. That's why pencils have erasers.

Let's start with the basics.

Your employees are human beings.

They may be a little - or a lot - slower than us managers.

They may not drive stylish cars, or work as hard...

But in most other ways they're just like you.

Make sure they have ample breaks, and snacks available.

Ensure their bathroom is of an acceptable standard.

And most importantly - don't put up with any talk of unions.

The main cause of employee-manager breakdown is unions...

...who point out things all good employees know to ignore.

If you have to shout, make sure to isolate the employee so others don't get upset.

And if they insist on only working nine-to-five...

...make it known they will never advance. Even if they won't advance anyway.

Follow these tips for a healthier, happier workplace.
