Dodgy timesheets

[Zippy]

I had a doley earlier... very crunchy.

One of the contractors in my team is adding extra (false) hours to his timesheets and getting paid additional OT as a result of this.

Do I:

1) Fire him
2) Have a quiet but firm word
3) Do nothing

Will come onto the other management issues later but he's a first time contractor and a right pain in the arse

One's first reaction is to terminate his contract however as he is a first timer. First give him a firm word and tell him that the next instance will result in the forthwith termination of his contract.

I think you will find such an activity is classed as 'mail fraud' in the US and is a criminal matter as soon as his invoice is posted.

Practical problem - can you prove it? If so, fire him. If somebody needs "a quiet word" before they are prepared to be honest they are tulipe anyway.

Agree with Keitel, get it in cash.

CONTRACTOR + PAIN IN THE ARSE = "50% rate cut or Notice period"

end of.

"Maybe you could step into it Tony?"

MF - What makes you think that I don't have a job already?

[MarillionFan]

I thought that Fred said you were out of work. Soz if not!

[BoredBloke]

Nope! I'm working and looking like I'm about to be extended.

Also, having read the various comments from fred, I'd not read in too much into anything he posts
