After getting off to a good start in the first six months of his job at a manufacturing facility, Jim J. began coming in late. His lateness was severe enough that it caused disruption of the production line. Over the next few months, additional problems accumulated: falsifying timecards to cover up lateness, leaving work early, and continued tardiness.

As the HR manager, you contact Jim after the first report of tardiness from Jim's supervisor. When Jim's performance problems continued, you created a progressive disciplinary plan. Finally, when Jim's supervisor reports that Jim was asleep on the production line, you write a recommendation for the company's director about taking action toward Jim's employment.
