    They don’t. Mostly, they just ignore any problems and hope that they resolve themselves. Unfortunately, many don’t, and the problems continue to fester. By not dealing with problems, we lose many good employees who get tired of dealing with problem employees. Managers have tried to deal with problem employees, but they do not have an HR department that will back them up. No one gets fired at our local plant. Locally, we had an employee slap his manager in the face. He then bragged about it to the other employees, so it wasn’t a “he said, she said” incident. He was sent for ‘anger management’, until he eventually quit on his own.

    It doesn't. Our HR dept keeps hiring people with absolutely no interest in supporting the company. When issues are brought to their attention, they are ignored. When managers try to remove under performing employees from the team, they are told to just "find something else for them to do". We can't keep finding "something else", either they can perform the work or they can't. We have half the plant that can't contribute any value to the company. For an example, 4 different managers have tried to "remove from the team" the same employee in the last 5 years. HR claims it too risky to terminate an employee, and employees are aware of this. Raises also must be equal among all employees, so this leads to total chaos and production problems. There is no risk or motivation to do quality work.
