7 Reasons for Failed Employee Probations
When a new employee starts with your company, the first few months are like a honeymoon period. You and the employee are getting to know each other, working out what makes each other tick and the employee is learning about your business. During this period, both sides work out if they are a "fit" and if the employee is not working out, then their probation is not confirmed (read - sacked). Generally probation lasts for 3 months, but in Australia under Work Choices (and where you notify the person before they commence), this probationary period can be up to 6 months.

Five Secrets to Becoming the Perfect Employee That Everyone Wants – Part One
With ever increasing deadlines, decreasing resources, and changing workplaces, sometimes it can be challenging to be a good employee, much less a perfect employee.

The Interview Process in a Nutshell
Have you ever thought about the full cost of hiring a new employee? There are the obvious costs: placing an ad, the wages spent on time looking at resumes and conducting interviews, pre-employment physical, reference checks. Then there are the less obvious costs: wages for training time of both the trainer and new employee, lost productivity while the position is vacant, lost productivity while the new employee learns and gets up to speed, the cost of mistakes.

And there are many strategies an employer can utilize to create an environment that inspires employee loyalty. But the first and most important step is making the right hiring decision.

Relationships: The Key to Organizational Success
Every company has an organizational structure which determines the duties and obligations of each employee. Each employee, from executive to manager to the employee, plays an important role in the productivity and success of the organization. In many cases channeled down organizational decisions can have a negative influence on the relationship between the supervisor and the employee which results in losses in organizational productivity and profits. Organizational relationships between supervisors and employees are the key to the success of any organization.
Small Business Employee Policies Series: Probationary Period
The probationary period, also called an orientation and review period is essentially a trial period for both you and your new employee to determine whether the job match is a good one. It is essential that you have an employee policy in place that will support the need to terminate your employee if job related issues do occur during the early stages of your new staff members’ employment.
