How would you react to this HR problem? [View All]

[OmahaBlueDog]

You are the owner of a fast food franchise. Your manager (a "him" for simplicity) has done a good job running the place for over three years now. The place is well maintained, reasonably profitable, and not receiving complaints. During an audit, you learn that the manager has been regularly getting groceries from your restaurant supplier and charging it off as inventory. This has been to the tune of $25-$50 per week, and it has gone on the whole three years. As far as you know, there are neither starving children, nor some worthy charity in the equation. Your manager makes salary & benefits at or above the industry standard.

Your response would be:

This is loosely based on a story an auditor I know told me.
