love_rat Posted November 14, 2011 Share Posted November 14, 2011 We hear about staff being used and abused, yet rarely do we hear about the milk of human kindness. I do think that employers could show some humanity by allowing their staff to stay at home if the snow comes down, why? Colds and sniffles If one member of staff goes to work with a cold, he or she could pass it onto their work colleagues. As it becomes colder and more snowier, people are more likely to suffer a cold and as such infect his/her workmates and causing mass infections Treating staff with fairness Staff work better when they are treat with dignity and respect. If staff can stay at home by the fire when it snows, then it engenders goodwill from that member of staff. Only nasty employers would expect staff to go into work when it snows. Health and safety, trips and falls When the snow comes down, the pavement can become very slippy. Not only can this cause an injury to a member of staff, the resulting accident would cause a member of staff to be off work potentially for a few months. better to avoid this problem by allowing staff to stay at home. Also, not to mention the mental humiliation should a member of staff fall on the ice, the resulting embarrasment could result in that member of staff needing councelling and time off work dealing with stress and anguish.
