If ignored, just one bad apple can infect your entire workplace \u2013 and that\u2019s why it\u2019s important to have a plan in place to manage toxic employees. However, toxic employees aren\u2019t typically lazy or poor performers. They can be incredibly productive compared to the average worker. What\u2019s more, these individuals often possess other valued traits. They often have sky-high levels of self-esteem and more than their fair share of charisma. Read on to discover how to deal with toxic staff in the workplace.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why are toxic staff bad for business?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At one end of the spectrum, toxic staff can simply be annoying or a bad fit for the business. On the other end, they harass, bully, and <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/resources\/workplace-conflict-management-guide\/\">make life unpleasant for co-workers<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, even relatively modest levels of this behaviour can take a major toll on your business and other employees. They can destroy morale, lower workforce productivity, induce absenteeism, and be the source of the uptick in employee turnover.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Save your office (and yourself) from all the headaches with our guide and learn how to manage toxic staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What you\u2019ll learn in the manage toxic staff guide:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>How to use the&nbsp;<strong>performance management checklist&nbsp;<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The best way to <strong>detect and manage toxic staff behaviour<\/strong>&nbsp;early<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How to&nbsp;<strong>avoid the damaging impact<\/strong>&nbsp;of bad apples<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>How to use <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/solutions\/recruitment-software\/\">behavioural interviewing techniques<\/a> to&nbsp;<strong>weed out toxic employees<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Much, much more!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Save yourself from an HR nightmare. Download our guide today and learn how to deal with toxic staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How do you deal with toxic employees?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Ask an HR consultant about the best way to deal with toxic employees, and they\u2019ll tell you to avoid hiring them in the first place!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While this is sound advice, it comes as cold comfort to you if you\u2019ve already made the hire and are now dealing with managing toxic behaviour. Don\u2019t beat yourself up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Toxic employees can be difficult to spot when you first meet them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Be sure to hear them out<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first step is to make sure you\u2019re dealing with a true toxic employee, as opposed to someone who\u2019s just being difficult or lazy or going through a tricky time or transition. It may just be a case of an underperforming employee, so investigate the situation to understand precisely what\u2019s going on before you jump to any conclusions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The root cause of the behaviour may be of a personal nature, such as a relationship breakdown, or money troubles, rather than being hell-bent on destroying your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If this is the case, most HR professionals say it\u2019s best not to get involved beyond lending a supportive ear or helping them find resources that might help them with their problems. Obviously, if their performance continues to suffer, then you\u2019ll need to manage this as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if the person is behaving in ways that are harmful to your company, then it\u2019s likely you\u2019re dealing with toxic employees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Telltale signs of toxic employees in your business<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A toxic employee can potentially put the brakes on business productivity, damage your business reputation, and destroy morale \u2013 all of which can come as a big blow to your bottom line.So how do you spot truly toxic employees? Know the signs and watch for these four common behaviours:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. They constantly complain<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Incessant negativity and employees who never seem to be satisfied unless they have something to criticise are sure signs of toxicity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A toxic worker generally has negative things to say about the workplace, their workload, and the business. And they don\u2019t mind telling anyone who\u2019ll listen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. They say, &#8220;that&#8217;s not my job&#8221;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As you know, in small businesses it\u2019s important that everyone thinks on their feet and can adapt quickly to shifting priorities, and do whatever it takes to get things done.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, we\u2019re not talking about asking your marketing staff to clean the bathrooms or your accounts department to go out on sales calls, it\u2019s more an attitude of willingness to jump in \u2013 sometimes without being asked.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Those who simply say \u201cthat\u2019s not my job\u201d, probably aren\u2019t well suited to a small business environment or being a team player. In fact, this type of behaviour can quickly destroy overall team cohesion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Toxic employees gossip<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s nothing harmless about gossip when it means employees are wasting time that could be better spent on productive conversations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Gossip can quickly become a breeding ground for negativity. And worse, it could actually undermine a colleague\u2019s self-esteem or cause good people to leave your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. They slack off<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Those employees who never seem to get any work done and don\u2019t pull their own weight will drag their team down and with it your business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, a team is only as strong as its weakest link. If you have a team of star employees, along with one slacker, the slacker in the team will quickly bring everyone else down to their level.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Not only do slackers fail to do their work but they can also distract others.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tackle toxic staff with the help of 91±¬ΑΟ<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you have spotted any of these toxic behaviours, try and tackle the infection head-on before it spreads across your team. If it comes to having to <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/resources\/discipline-termination-policy\/\">fire a toxic employee<\/a>, don\u2019t be rash. Make sure you follow due process and give them every chance to mend their ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For your employees, think about providing some education and coaching about toxic behaviours during your onboarding process and training managers to detect early signs. Of course, as we said in the beginning, the best way to deal with toxic employees is not to hire them in the first place. <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/uk\/\">91±¬ΑΟ<\/a> is the world\u2019s first integrated HR and payroll system that can help you foster a positive workplace culture and minimise the effect of toxic employees on your bottom line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2
