[QUOTE="rockridgecattle, post: 890904, member: 6198"] Have them leave the cell phone with the lunchpail. Tell them "you are on the clock! I expect your full attention on the job i am paying you for! Otherwise find a new job!" You are the boss, pay the bills, are incharge of safety for your workers. When you hire them, and tell them of the safety things, get them to sign a paper with the "rules" on it so they acknowledge you have told them. Then if they do it, warning, warning, fire their sorry @$$. Document document. I know this does not help what happened but will help prevent further stupid mistakes by dumb people who think talking/texting while working is acceptable. I do not remember any job i had allowing me personal calls every few minutes. If i had that many calls as an empoyee i would have been fired. In Manitoba and with other provinces following suit, it is is illegal to drive and text. Caught by the police with a cell phone in your hand while driving..even at a stop light..$500.00 fine On a simillar note...a person on an ipod with headphones while working. How the heck to do you hear the change in sounds on a tractor when your ears are plugged with music? Ear plugs for safety yes. Ear plugs with music blocking out the sounds around you...stupid [/QUOTE]
