    mistakes made on orders (too much food put on the order ticket)

    We document all mistakes, if it is a constant problem (more than 2 times per month) with a specific employee it then becomes 1) a verbal warning, 2) a writeup 3) a write up and suspension and/or possible termination. We reset after 6 months of no issues.
