How to fire an employee

When a boss/employee working relationship just is not working out, many supervisors wonder how to fire that employee. Terminating a person’s employment is a difficult situation, but the thing to remember is that it is not personal. The decision is based on the employee’s work habits and work behaviors being sub-par, and that is what the firing discussion should focus on. Tell the employee why they are being fired and mention any previous warnings or citations. Do not allow the conversation to become emotional or personal.
