Question

Hanks, a supervisor at an international firm, observes that Tom, one of his subordinates, often extends his lunch breaks and also leaves early to home. Hanks wants to use progressive disciplinary method to change Tom's behavior. Next time Hanks observes the same kind of behavior from Tom, he should _____.

Answer 1

Explanation:

Give Tom a verbal warning

                Tom works in an international firm. Hanks works as a supervisor and Tom works under Hanks.

                Hanks often notices that Tom extends his lunch breaks and most of the time leaves early from office to home. Hanks is not very happy from Tom's such behavior and wants to use a progressive disciplinary method to change Tom's behavior.  

                So next time when Hank observes Tom doing the same thing leaving early from office and taking long lunch breaks, Hanks should personally give Tom a verbal warning and ask him not to behave in this way.

Thus then answer is "Give Tom a verbal warning".
