Gross Misconduct - Senior Executive Dismissal

A charitable organisation came to us seeking assistance with the dismissal of a senior staff member who had been repeatedly drinking alcohol at work.

Situation

The employee’s actions were damaging the organisation’s reputation and caused other members of staff to feel threatened by the behaviour.

Solution

We advised the client on how to address the situation professionally, ensuring the dismissal was based on a clear and documented case of gross misconduct. We gave our client guidance on the investigation and disciplinary process, ensuring all evidence was collected, and an appropriate, impartial individual was able to manage the process throughout.

Outcome

The organisation successfully removed the employee from the business and restored a positive and harmonious work environment for the remaining team members.

I would wholeheartedly recommend Taurus HR Solutions for all your HR needs. They provided a personal and professional service that ensures peace of mind in the workplace. I am grateful for their dedicated service and would highly recommend them to anyone looking for an HR firm they can trust.
