Welcome to another Listener Q&A with The Team at HR Stories! Today's episode goes into these questions:

1. I have an employee who consistently makes comments that they aren’t getting the OT they are used to getting and the lack of consistent hours (being they get 37 and not 40 plus). These comments are harming them personally (how people are perceiving them in the workplace). What is a good way of handling this with the employee?
2. How do you explain the difference between behavioral issues (insubordination) vs. a PIP (performance improvement plan) for something like not hitting sales numbers and needing more training?
3. How have y’all handled the weight of just everything (workload, feeling heard, being respected/approachable)?
