I guess this is one of the serious threads you were talking about.  I am used to seeing threads like the on the red bored where I swear some of those idiots have their wive's dress them in the morning? The fact you had to ask a question like that is enough for me.  This must be a GTA thing?

the guy called me right away and said "I will work today for free AND pay for the repair" this was his exact words then he put it in an e-mail the next day.

he's only been with me for 3 months, is part time and a good worker.

I had techs break vacuums, windows, damage trucks etc.
 
I never once made them pay, they might have been let go somewhere down the road because of a number of issues. Damage might have only been a peace of the pie.
 
I don't believe in making someone pay for damage when the are carring out their duties.
 
If they are a good tech and you make them pay they might be the one firing you.
Could somebody just clean my carpets!

In the US the employer is, by law, required to pay, unless the person is contracted for the position. However, if they volunteer to pay, that's another issue.

What do you guys do when an employee bumps into something with a company vehicle and damages it.
 
make him pay parts and labour?
make him pay parts only?
make him pay nothing?
 
what do you think?
