Managing Employee Performance

One of the reasons companies have processes and human resources departments is because there are employment laws. This resource starts with an employee dilemma. You will be introduced to various performance issues and employee rights as you read.

As you know from reading this book so far, the time and money investment in a new employee is overwhelming. The cost to select, hire, and train a new employee is staggering.
