Multiple Choice

You are the HR Manager for your company. One of your employees has been actively involved in demonstrations at City Hall, protesting the city's refusal to adopt any environmentally-friendly ordinances or practices.

You should:

• A)give the employee a "warning," the firs step in your employee handbook's progressive discipline process, warning him that he must stop protesting
• B)tell the employee that you do not approve of his conduct, and that it will be taken into account when he comes up for a raise or promotion
• C)ask the employee to wear some other shirt while protesting, so that people don't think your company is also protesting
• D)terminate the employee
