It is also unusually difficult for employees to accept that personal problems are affecting their job performance. Frequently, employees who have persistent performance or attendance problems are found to have underlying difficulties which are causing problems on the job. The supervisor can provide motivation toward health and productivity by addressing the poor performance and simultaneously offering a source of professional help. When there are no work performance problems but an employee shares a personal problem with you. When you are feeling stressed, frustrated, helpless, disappointed or anxious when thinking about an employee's work performance problems A persistent performance problem is unlikely to resolve without any supervisory intervention.
Employee Relations can offer assistance in following proper disciplinary procedures.
Contact PAS to inform us of a potential referral. Talk with employee about job performance expectations and outline what changes are needed. Recommend PAS as a resource to help resolve problems.
