Management doesn't seem concerned. But then there are rumblings and someone makes a veiled threat about taking care of it. What do you do?
Wanna Get Us All Sick? (from Workplace Inclusion: Navigating Through Difficult Times™)
Social distancing policies and standards within the workplace are essential to protecting employees from possibly getting sick. Employees most likely will continue to maintain a six-foot distance from others and otherwise observe social distancing in the workplace as work duties permit. Also, there might need to be a limit to the total number of workers in a workspace (based on square footage) and a limit to the number of people in conference rooms, workstations, etc.
I Can’t Take It Anymore! (from Workplace Inclusion: Navigating Through Difficult Times™)
Change! How many of us really like it? We all know it's part of life – part of the workplace. But with change comes stress and uncertainty. Many of us are feeling (or have felt) the impact of working remotely during the pandemic. We’ve been asked to social distance for months and we are all feeling the lack of real co-worker interaction.

The Fight Response (from Confronting Workplace Conflict™ for Managers)
It’s pretty obvious…yelling doesn’t help promote a respectful workplace or help make people feel included. It’s the same thing when dealing with conflict. Relationships get damaged, productivity dramatically decreases - people just shut down. Who wants to be yelled at? It’s unfortunate, but those who hit conflict straight on like that usually don’t know a better way to get things done.

Evaluating Performance & Progressive Discipline (from It's the Law™)
Unless an immediate termination is called for because of severe misconduct or major error, most terminations are the culmination of inappropriate conduct, unsatisfactory performance, or poor attendance that have built up over time. Most organizations follow progressive discipline steps in these situations. And progressive discipline is usually required in union collective bargaining agreements. It’s important to be careful, fair, accurate, and consistent when issuing disciplinary or corrective actions—and when evaluating performance.
The Flight Response (from Confronting Workplace Conflict™ for Managers)
When we encounter conflict with co-workers, many times we get stressed out and we go into flight mode. When a problem causes me to take “Flight”, I typically do it because I’m afraid that I’ll upset someone and hurt that relationship. Simply put… I’m afraid they won’t like me. But here’s the rub. If I don’t act, the problem won’t go away, it will affect my work, the productivity of other team members and a whole lot more.
The Freeze Response (from Confronting Workplace Conflict™ for Managers)
It’s not uncommon for people to simply “freeze up” when another person tries to steamroll the situation. Yet, moments later we want to kick ourselves because we now know what we should have said - only it’s too late. At the same time, we think we’ll say the wrong thing and the person will get even more upset.

I Just Can't Risk It
Digitally Remastered! As managers, supervisors and leaders, we have a responsibility to hold each other to the same standard as everyone else. Sure, they might be our friends. But we can't make exceptions. We must let them know that they need to help set the example. And anything they do that violates any part of our Code of Conduct or program - like retaliating against someone for reporting a violation - seriously undermines our organization's culture of integrity.
