An Employer Has To Do What Is Best For Its Business

Business, Ethics.

Puntuality in business - you wanted to have that second cup of coffee from your favorite mug and you will only be a few minutes late. It is a big deal to be late by five minutes or an hour. Whats the big deal.


When you are late for work, every minute counts. - businesses run on a schedule to prevent conflict and to insure that everything runs smoothly. Each minute missed effects the flow of a business. When an employee is late it automatically alters the schedule and the days events. By state law each adult can care for five children at a time without aid. An example of this is a person working at a daycare.


Say there are usually eighteen infants and two teachers. - if the teacher aid is late or absent the employer of this facility is forced to try and find a rapid replacement for that person. An aid is needed in this room to keep with state laws requirements. If not the employer faces a heavy fine and the possibility of her business being shut down. Companies lose money when time is lost. Being late can cause serious trouble for a business.


If you work in construction and you have to complete a project in say five months. - when these employees take a few extra minutes for lunch that takes time away that could be time spent on the job to complete it on deadline. Every employee on the job counts towards project completion. If a job is not completed on time, contracts will be voided and large amounts of money will be lost. An employer has to do what is best for its business. If you are late consistently then you run a high risk of losing your job. If you are being late is causing business to encounter too many bumps in the road then you may have to be replaced.


Leave your home early enough to plan for accidents or traffic. - this is why it is important to always be on time. Consider the weather, if it will slow you down. Give yourself sufficient time to eat a meal before you leave if needed. Be sure to get up early enough to shower and dress. Have all of your job materials prepared for the next day so as to not waste time being late due to scrambling for needed items. If events do occur and you are forced to be late, be courteous and give a call to your employer.


Do your best to be prepared for anything, so you are able to arrive to work on time. - explain the situation and your location. This may provide enough information for your employer to fill in for you, and possibly saving some trouble. At a minimum you are at least providing your employer with the knowledge of your lateness. Being late is serious and when prevented you ensure your business will operate properly and successfully.
