    Episode #040 - Can I Keep An Employee Working Past Their Two-Week Notice?

    This week, Brigitte asked, "I had a situation with a troubled employee that caused to stellar employees to put in their notice of leaving. One gave 2-weeks notice. The other gave four based on the scheduled release of a deliverable. We have been working to get rid of the troubled employee for a while, but terminating him may take two weeks on its own through our HR process. Is there a way to ignore the notice requests and insist on the good employees staying on?" Find the answer to this question and more like it at http://businessquestionsansweredhere.com.
