Employer and Employee Responsibilities

Building strong relationships between employers and employees is the best way to ensure that communication is open and honest. On top of meeting legal employer requirements and setting expectations, it is also important to manage staff performance. This can help support underperforming staff, as well as provide development and learning opportunities for the whole team, which will benefit the individuals and the business. Regular staff appraisals, quarterly performance reviews, and one-to-ones can help managers effectively communicate with team members and set realistic goals. It also provides an opportunity for employees to discuss any concerns they have or any desires to take on new responsibilities. Sometimes it is necessary to take disciplinary action if an employee isn’t responding to feedback about their performance.
