how do i force an employee to quit

we have a secretary at my work place. i cant stand her because she has a terrible attitude problem. i have tried being patient but she is just incorrigible! she is resentful, bitter, grumbles a lot and makes unreasonable complaints, works slowly and her social skills are zero. all other employees cant stand her. she does her work inappropriately. i wish i could fire her straight but i cant. i dont want to be seen as a mean boss who fired the secretary. i have tolerated her enough! how do i force her to resign? someone help me please!

You can't just force an employee to quit without any reasons. If he or she is incompetent, you must first inform her in writing and give her the chance to defend herself before taking any drastic actions.

the toughest part of being a boss is to fire people. but also as boss we have an responsibility to develop people. if you are not going to tell her what her deficiencies are how do you expect her to solve them. try corrective action programme. first stop thinking that you want to fire her. give her a letter explaining where her behaviour or performance is deficient, what she needs to do to improve , what the organization will do for her(training) and time farme given to her to show progress. if still same problems exist then you are fire her.
but be sure you deal with her fairly not on your predisposition to fire her immediately.

I don't know where you are from but most if not all states in the USA are at will employment now and can fire for absolutely no reason. BUT if the employee feels it falls under the discrimination guidelines or was totally wrong then they can sue.
If this person is as bad as the OP says then it does sound like they have good cause to fire.

stevetcg disagrees: Illegal and immoral.
Altenweg disagrees: Very bad advice. But considering the text talk you're probably 10 and don't know any better.

Actually, it IS illegal. Its called harrassment and its a great way to get sued.
