Lynne Curry of The Growth Company Releases Article- “Employer Generosity Quickly Becomes Expected”
(PRWEB) April 09, 2014 -- Lynne Curry, Ph.D., SPHR (CEO of The Growth Company, Inc ) has over 30 years of experience in management consulting and frequently receives questions from clients regarding situations in the workplace. Today, Dr. Curry releases an article for employers with employees that expect previous generous gestures to be routine.
Dr. Curry received an email from a client, “I feel like a crappy boss. It's been sunny lately and occasionally I'd like to tell my employees to take Friday afternoon off or at least to leave at 4. This especially hit me the Friday before Labor Day because I knew my employees wanted to start their three-day weekend early and get on the road before traffic grew dense.”
“Our company, however, is digging itself out of a financial problem that might result in layoffs and I can't justify the cost of giving everyone a half day off, so I'm ignoring the looks out the window and the casual comments from employees who are hoping I'll say, ‘Let's just shut down and enjoy the weekend.’ I also remember last year when I gave a lot of half-days off on Friday and everyone grew to expect it and then didn't seem any happier about working here.”
