How can a business owner handle dishonest employees?

[Good-Person]

There is no better way to handle a dishonest employee than to relief such a person from his/her duty. I believe every organization takes honesty and integrity very seriously especially for the purpose of the company's image, therefore if an employee fails to hold on to this then it is important that the company le such a person go.

I think it entirely depends on the offence committed. I used to work for a company that used to fire employees for not informing and taking leave without informing the admins. They never used to grant leave and they always used to pressurize employees and I believe that this is bad.

There is no other way to handle a dishonest employee than to fire him or her. This will prevent the employee from affecting other good workers in the workplace with his bad attitude. I don't think it is necessary to give second chance for a dishonest employee in the workplace.

Let's say for example you have a business of your own, and you are able to discover some dishonest staff, how would you handle them, would you lay them off immediately or give them a chance to try again?

Confront the employee. Tell him you know about the dishonest behavior and that you will not accept it. In minor cases of dishonesty, such as taking small amounts of office supplies home from work, confrontation alone may stop the behavior.

Dishonesty is one thing I don't like to be mentioned in a business as it is one of the reasons businesses collapse today. Agreement is an agreement, so everyone should stick to it. I think this kind of person should be dismissed appropriately.

Immediate dismissal is truly the best option. This is because such kind of dishonest employees can really cause the downfall of a business. It is best to let them go.
