How to Address Misbehavior Among Group D Employees Without Losing Staff?

Dealing with Misbehavior of Group D Employees

I came across a client who is having a serious problem while dealing with Group D employees, specifically peons. They misbehave with female employees and do not obey HODs. Management is hesitant to take any action due to the fear of losing employees.

Is there any way through which behavior can be changed or improved?

You have to initiate disciplinary action against the errant employees to curb these bad tendencies and nip them in the bud. If you choose to ignore it, there will be more indiscipline. This one really is serious, so you can issue a charge sheet for insubordination and set an example.

I do not know what you people are talking about. Someone is misbehaving with female employees, and you say that your organization is helpless, timid, or cowardly, and nothing else.

If this happens to your sister working in another organization, what would you do? She can go to the police station if she wants if you and the organization are not taking action. Do you want that to get published in the newspaper and become the talk of the town?

And you fear people will be leaving. If something happens to our fellow female employees and you are not able to take action—even though you have all legal means to do so—I presume there is seriously something wrong with your organization. Perhaps it is engaging in activities that go against ethical business practices, which these people are aware of. They may disclose this to others if you take action against them.

Thank you for your suggestion. The alternatives have been sent to the management for approval, and action will be taken very soon. Recruitment for a new set of Group D employees has already commenced.
