List and briefly explain three questions a supervisor should ask herself when she receives a special request from an employee that is about work schedules, procedures, breaks, and personal matters that are important to the individual but relatively
insignificant in the total operation.
What will be an ideal response?
1. Is there a written policy that governs such requests? If so, it should apply (except in unusual cases) and should be carefully explained to the employee.
2. Will granting the request damage relationships with other employees in her department? If so (except in unusual cases), it should be refused and the reasons made clear to the person making the request.
3. Will granting the request seriously endanger the health and safety of others? If so, it should be refused and the reasons given.
