I don't believe in burning bridges. I would still hire such a person of I still need his or her services. It is good to maintain good relationships even with your ex employees.
Would you rehire a former staff who resigned voluntarily?
- Thread starter IB D
- Start date
I won't hire such a staff again. It could have a rub off on current employees who would believe that they can leave the company and come back and find their places intact.
As long as it is not for a selfish reason that the staff had to resign, I will always be interested in taking him back into the team.
How do you ascertain that the reason is selfish or not? For me, if it is not for a personal engagement that would disrupt your balance of at work, I would nor take your back because most employees resign because of promise of better pay elsewhere.
Why not, if employees who have resigned voluntarily have good performance, are also honest, so they can be trusted to carry out important company tasks. especially if the employee has skills that are rarely possessed by others. We as business owners must also consider their reasons for stopping work, such as caring for parents who are sick, of course if their reason for moving to another company is of course we will reject it.
No matter how hard it is to replace you, if I discern that the reason you want to resign is pay related and I try to placate you and you still go ahead to be resign. Forget it, you and I plus my businesses organization would never be in terms with you.
It depends on the situation. If he/she left in good terms it maybe worth rehiring them. But if not there is a chance they'll do it again.And they may feel even more comfortable leaving the second time since you'll rehire them if things don't work out.
you can not bethat stingy people gi via a lot of things in life if you wont care for others just wait when you are in same situation people will not care for you as well then you will feel.howyou treated others in their low times actually .
Personally I don't think there is anything wrong with rehiring a worker who voluntarily resigned before unless past record shows he or she is not that good with his service, but apart from that I will rehire such person.
When we have workers, they are employees and not slaves. They have a freedom to go for another job for better opportunities and compensation. There is nothing ethically wrong with that. There is no labour bandage in this civilized world. As long as the professional ethics and rules have been followed before resignation, there is nothing wrong in rehiring him. Many people in corporate world switch jobs for better opportunities. And I know of few cases where people have joined back their previous employer when they had a good opportunity.
That depends on if the employee resigned on a very excellent note. When the staff resigned, did they leave the company stranded. If they did, no need to rehire them.
I know that it is human nature to be bitter. But when it comes to business, I don't do it with emotions. If it is clear that the former staff would better the quality of my present workforce, I get him in as soon as possible.
I have clearly mentioned that in my comments. I have said that as long as the employee had been professional and followed all moral and business ethics while resigning, there should not be any issues in rehiring him. Human beings are emotional and one can have bitter feelings if one of the good employees leaves the company for any reason including better opportunity outside. But for a business to run well, one has put aside such personal emotions and take decisions that will favour the business.
Yes it depends on the qualifications and performance of the person. If the person was really good at what they do before and decides to come back i would accept them but would also monitor them to see if they are still good in what they do like before.
