HOW TO AVOID A PINK SLIP

 

Time can be uncertain... and so can be our Job. Sometimes, we may have to pass through a recession and sometimes we may have to face a harsh employer. Every such momentum can pose a threat to our Job. No matter how efficient we might be, some tips are ought to be kept in mind if we wish to secure our job forever.

Let them know your work

You might work hard and you might achieve innumerable tasks. But it’s important that your employer is aware of our achievement and dedication. Talk to him or send him a mail. But make sure that he knows about your work and methodology.

Be Dependable

Every employee might seem to be a part of the firm. But when it comes to reducing the staff... most of them might not pass the test. So, place yourselves in such a way that the firm has to think umpteenth time before laying you off.

Ask for a Feedback

Work to your maximum capability. But never be satisfied with the quality of your work. Ask your officials and mentors about your work and heed their advice. Always be ready to a change that could fortify your capability.

Co- workers

Maintaining healthy relation with co-workers is a key trait for a good employee. Managers often consider the good will of an employee before deciding his fate.

Be passionate

Passionate people are rare species. So employers would never dare to get rid of such people. As we have to spend most of our time and energy on the job, it could be a better option to add some love and passion to it. That would ultimately make our job endearing to us and make us adorable to our boss!

Know the need

Be sure of the goals and objectives of the firm. And try to align your work with such goals. Working 24/7 without any aim could be futile forever.

Handle the pressure

Being cool at tough times is indeed a challenge. Achieving such trait could bring a difference in your job. And moreover no employer would dare to get rid of a person with endurance.

Discipline

Firms might not pressure much on punctuality during profits. But when things seem to soar up, punctuality could be a yardstick to measure your character. So, it’s always better to stick to the good old basic rules of punctuality.


Above all! When you have been a good employee at all standards, and if the firm is thinking of ousting you... it’s better to search for a new job before the firm offers its pink slip.
