HOLDING YOUR EMPLOYEES FINANCIALLY ACCOUNTABLE IS GOOD FOR QUALITY AND THE BOTTOM LINE

KEY FACTOR:

Anything that you plan to hold your employees accountable for if they leave your company needs to be documented the day they are issued the items, with their signature on the list of items and their replacement value. Normal wear and tear was not expected to be reimbursed but any lost item was a cost reimbursed by the employee. Items left at client’s homes become very costly to your bottom line and they are not attractive to the client entering their freshly cleaned abode. Holding your employees accountable will help the bottom line from several different directions.

ACTION ITEM:

Make a list of all of the items that you will expect your employees to pay for if they lose them. Put a value on each item. These would be things like feather dusters, whisk brooms, T-Shirts things that cost $3 or more. Have a place for a date, name and signature and manager/owner signature.

IMPLEMENTATION PROCESS:

Make this form part of the hire packet that holds all of the paperwork that a new employee must sign their first day of work. You will need to issue the items they are signing for at the same time they are signing the authorization form. You cannot deduct money from an employee’s last paycheck, or any paycheck for that matter, without their written consent. If any additional items are issued during the duration of the cleaners employment a new authorization form must be signed for each new item before you can deem it reimbursable.
