Once everything is ready (Termination For Cause) for the meeting, it's

Terminate without fear of making mistakes. Our recommended procedure.

Once everything is ready for the meeting, it's time for the dismissal. You must not display anger during the lay off interview. They will aid you handle problems, communicate with the jobholder and serve as important legal papers. To give yourself your own legal recourse, make sure you always use a well thought out, professionally written notification of dismissal. Therefore, don't use salary as your official reason for terminating. Wise employers do not fire workers without a reason and claim protection under "employment at will". Please direct further questions to (state legal counselor's name, Hr boss or proprietor). She's always violating safety rules and hurting herself. So you must only inform the personnel department and any witnesses who must attend the firing meeting. You must account for this when developing your firing disabled employee policies. The jobholder separation memorandum is the last step in escalating discipline.

You must change your directives of the difficult individual. Through papers, the difficult worker will know you're building a case on him and circumstances have gotten more serious. Then make Tuesday the effective dismissal date and tell the employee to return Tuesday to get his final check. This is the right way to go about it.
