Hi, it's Tina. I'm here with your one-minute management tip. Do you happen to be having a problem with attendance or punctuality? It seems like it's gotten worse in the last couple of years. At least that's what I am hearing with unplanned and excess absences, people walking in late and not even giving an excuse as to why.
If this sounds like a problem that you've been dealing with, when was the last time you looked at your attendance policy? Well, maybe you ought to pull it out, dust it off and take a look at it. Does it need to be revamped? When was the last time you reviewed it with everyone in the office? Well, take the time to do so.
Make sure it's up-to-date. And then sit down and say, we're gonna talk about attendance. Do you know that this policy is in our employee manual? And if you don't have one of those, you can email me. But, and then go over it. Give them the opportunity to ask questions and the what-ifs. What if this happens, so that you can explain. So that they have a fresh recollection of what proper attendance is and what being punctual means to you.
If you have any questions regarding this, just email me at [email protected]. Take care. Bye.
