Hey guys, hoping someone can give a bit of advice.
It came to our attention last night that a senior member of out staff has extored €450 from another member of staff. It was €700 bt so far only €450 has been paid.
We have no solid proof but we did over hear a phone conversation between the 2 people, after the member of staff came to us about this situation.
The guy was young and worried about losing his job so he agreed to pay for this so called damage that was done to someone property.
We went to the guards to make a statement and was told there was no point there's nothing they can do!!!! I'm amazed by that but anyway....
Obviously we dont want this person working for us anymore, but are worried about possible come back ( i personally dont think the accused would take things any further but my partner is very worried )
we have thought up a number of ways...get him to quit instead of sacking him, but would he sign anything to say he was quitting? He could come back late and say he didn't resign.
Threatner to call the police and hope he doesn't realise that nothing can be done. And we'll never hear from him again.
Tell him straight out why we are letting him go, and hope he's that ashamed he'll just leave without a fuss.
I'm so shocked by what has happened, this guy has been working for us for nearly 4 years...as far as we are awre this is the first time anythng like this has happened but there is no way of finding out for sure as the nature of our businee we have a high turn over off staff and they come and go a fair bit.
I feel terrible for having to let him go 3 weeks before christmas and he has a young son a wife and another baby on the way.....maybe why he resorted to doing this in the first place but still no excuse.
If he was really stuck for money he could of come to us...on sereval occassion we have helped him out in the past..we have actually bent over backwards to help him a we classed him as a friend not just an employee.
Were just still so in shock at the moment this has happened. He has also been behaving very badly towards this young lad as well, which is how we found out. We told him who he was working with for next week and he said he couldn't work, after talking to him a bit more we found out that he had i suppose in a way been bullied by the other member of staff, and he said with what happened with the damage he didnt want to say anything incase he lost his job....obviously we were like what damage?? And then it all came out.
He rang the other member of staff and put him on loud speaker to say that he would have the remaining money for him this friday when he got paid. The other guy replied saying that was fine to give it him and he had spoken to us and his job is safe since he has paid for the damage and to just be careful in future.
If it hadn't of been for that call that we heard i dont think we would of believed it. A friend who has worked for us for years compared to someone who had worked for us for a month.
Sorry rambled on a bit....any advice anyone has i'd be very grateful. We've been trying to get hold of our solicitor all day but he's ben unavailable. We manage to make up a story of why he didn't have to work today so we could try and sort things out, not sure we can use that again for tomorrow, but the last thing we want is him coming into work with us knowing what we know now.
