Sack them straight up. Especially if it's a Nigerian employee.

They will ruin your business. I'm talking from experience.

So people actually buy jeans for ridiculous amounts like 35k?


Okrika market don close?

Enter New Market in Benin on Tuesday morning pick confam jeans 6-7k, move ahead

No time

Lagos na State of lazy people wey dey form busy

Vinnie2000:
An Clothing Organization that sells Baggy Jeans, (One for N20000), Increased price to N35000, due to the Harsh Economic situation of the Tinibu Govt.

Most Clients complained but later Adjusted when the company explained things with them.

Now a Dubious Client still wanted to buy 1 Jean @the N20000 Old Price and gave the amount to a Staff
(Who is her Family friend) to pay and Hoodwink the secretary to write Receipt for her.

The Staff agreed in this Plan and Tried to carry it out but FAILED.

So Question is, What is the appropriate Punishment for the Staff?
*SACK?
*SUSPENSION?
*Or QUERY?

..
.
Where there's no law, there's no punishment!
...
The staff should be dealt with according to the 'laid down' rules of the Org as regards his/her misconduct

Agreed! Every organization/company ought to have clear rules on how even such things would be handled so employees are clear on the Dos and Don'ts.

Dock the amount from his salary since there were no rules in place before this.

The dubious client = staff.

There is no other dubious client here. I think you changed the story to cover up something. Maybe you are even the one involved....but I stand corrected.

HeatSeeker:
It's an attempt to defraud the clothing company. Most companies that value integrity do not tolerate fraud in any form, especially when it is against the interest of the company. Termination of employment is the appropriate course of action based on the story narrated here.

The company is being dishonest by selling old stock with outrageous profit margin. The staff is aware that they are profiteering and it's leadership tone of dishonest company leadership begets dishonest staff.
I have insisted on paying old price on an old stock and the seller eventually agreed with me that he can't impose new prices on old stock because Naira has been devalued. That company can not last eventually if it keeps acting dishonestly. Disciplinary measure that exonerates the dishonest management is not the solution.
The company leaders should be honest.

Una wicked ooooo. How una increase baggy of 20k to 35..
That's about 75% increase.....
...all this baggy I used to buy 4500 for Emab Plaza in those days back in 2015...
Na wah o!.
I miss those days...
God punish buhari and Tpain.

Let her have the baggy

Deduct the difference from her salary and one week suspension...

I bet your response would be different if you knew the tribe of the staff or the management of the company 😒

Every business has a right to adjust prices of their products/services based on current market realities. How do you expect them to restock after their profit margin has been eroded due to the devaluation of the local currency?

Very stupid staff i think they need to suspend him or her first when there families abandon her she will get sense

You understand process.

Smh. It is not true that you can fix the price of your goods and services by profiteering without restrain. Nowhere in the world is it practiced. Not even USA, the capital of free enterprise, is the right of a business to fix prices unrestrained. Here's a recent attempt to stop arbitrary pricing https://edition.cnn.com/2024/03/14/tech/americans-high-speed-internet-access-fcc/index.html

If you sell old stock at new prices that imposes an unfair outrageous burden on the customer and you are reported to the relevant agency, you and your business will be in trouble.

New stock will come with it's own profit margin to reflect the market reality just like for the old stock. If you have old stock of Jeans and sell at 25% profit margin for N7,500 per pair of jeans. If you suddenly jerk up the price of the old stock to sell at N15, 000, it's a criminal 200% profit margin! If it goes unchallenged, that's like a ten-fold increase in your profit margin! Blood money! Not even petrol marketers increased their profit margins by 10x!

That the selling price for new stock is N15K doesn't give you right for criminal profiteering! It is criminal excuse to use dishonest means to get money from the buyer of old stock to raise new capital to stock at new prices. That's why I have no doubt that businesses led by people with your kind of excuses for cheating their customers will not last and they will hire dishonest staff too.

Vinnie2000:
YES, That's why I used that word Hoodwink.

The Client who sent the Staff wanted a Receipt bearing 35K.

From what I heard, They Connived and the Staff Told the Secretary that the Client (Her Family friend) have sent the Money ("35K) but there was Bank Network issues.

But later she now claimed the Network FAILED totally,
That the Secretary should just hold N20,000, thinking that that the Secretary has written Receipt.

That's fraudulent. She deserves to be suspended at the very least.

serves him/her right

It depends on the company policies and regulations!
Some would outrightly sack such staff...others might suspend and withhold their salary for that month!
Based on the write-up,a suspension with a salary cut that month would likely be appropriate!

The clothing line should at least give their employees some discount whenever they want to buy clothes from the company. That's the way it goes in foreign countries.

As a business owner I don’t tolerate any form of distrust in any form, immediately I doubt you, you’re gone, same with friends…

He/she nor STEAL/KILL O
Person.This is using staff privilege to assist a friend/family. If ur boss see this as a Crime,then most of the banking staff are guilty Some dey use their staff privilege to obtain loan on behalf of friends/family

Summary dismissal and the staff involved should be handed over to police for further interrogation

A company reserves the right to change it's prices, old stock or no old stock, do sales to reduce price or not.

It is from old stock it will pay new Electricity tariff, new staff minimum wage, new Petrol price increases, new exchange rate for materials , new lending interest rates from banks, and so on.

The staff does not have any right to collect 20k and have an official receipt of 35k written out. That is fraud.

If something goes wrong with the jeans and the customer wants refunds, the customer will come and claim 35k refunds from the company using that receipt this making the company lose 15k

I think the appropriate punishment for fraud should be immediate sack with arrest
