The orders of the manager

The chief of a team, it is that that has the power of the employer to give orders. to see you to react on the terrain, you do not appear always been convinced this right. The foreman has a power, but as you remind yourself, it exerts by delegation of the employer. This delegation is signed in the contract of work of the manager and it is the cosignment of this last that gives it the power to order.
Therefore an order of the manager to a member of its team is legitimate. Why do you make sometimes reserves or oppositions? Because the authority of the manager created only a bond of subordination and does not mean that whole what leaves its mouth is Gospel word. The paid subordinate has it also signed a contract of work with the employer and the order of the manager has to return in functions of the managed and only in those of the manager.
You allude to definitions of functions who figure in the grille of classification and who can be different according to levels of the position? Perfectly.
It seems me nevertheless that from moment where a wage-earner has accepted an order, it is normal that it continues to execute it if one asks it it. To execute an order, even after an oral acceptance or document, this is not a commitment as it is a contract of work. The order is an order to make some thing and if it endangers the security of the wage-earner or its colleagues or the security or the health of the consumer or if it is not in functions of the contract or if it is positioned at a level of position superior in the grille, it to have the wage-earner is to make it notice.
You mean that some thing that one has accepted to make once, one can not to make it a second? I tell only that the wage-earner has the duty to remind that the application of an order has to be accompanied by means or that it does not have to be made by being opposite to an other essential function or that it has to be evident that its execution can not to allow an other task or that its regular execution has to oblige the manager to anticipate a promotion in the grille of classification.
If one applied constantly what you tell, the enterprise would risk to have a lot pangs. If the manager respects the managed, the managed will respect it. If an order is not correct, it to have the employer is to recognize it. If the employer prevents remarks of wage-earners managed, that they express individually, in meeting of team or by the intermediary of delegated them of the personnel, it is going to create a uneasiness that will express by the open conflict as soon as an order will make overflow the vase because it will have hurt a wage-earner or will have made fear in the totality of its colleagues.
