TUESDAY | THOUGHTS

A friend recently complained about receiving a rejection email for a volunteer role.

It sounded funny at first, getting rejected for a job you were willing to do for free. But it was also a reminder that volunteer opportunities still require the right skills, commitment, and fit.

Whether paid or unpaid, every role has expectations. Sometimes the lesson isn’t in the rejection itself, but in realizing that growth and learning are always required.

Thursday | HR Thought

“Everyone is staying late today. It’s not a request.”

The room falls silent.

But can an employer really force employees to work overtime?

The answer depends on labour laws, the employment contract, and workplace policies. Overtime should be managed fairly, with respect for employees’ rights and any applicable compensation.

A strong workplace doesn’t rely on endless overtime, it relies on good planning, mutual respect, and effective leadership.

Long hours don’t always mean high performance. Smart management does.

Promoting High Performers Doesn’t Always Create Great Leaders

Being excellent at a job and being excellent at leading people are two different skills. Organizations must develop leaders, not just appoint them.

DEAR INTERNS | HAPPY WEDNESDAY

Please ready carefully.

As you get internships there is always that excitement that one feels . Always remember An internship is an excellent opportunity to try out a career field, build skills, and potentially become employed at a company full-time.

1. Be Professional
Be mindful of how you present yourself to your co-workers and supervisor. Those are people that will recommend you both inside and outside work places

2. Watch and Learn
Watch and seek guidance from your colleagues and peers. We understand you were an A+ Student. Grades may have given your that opportunity now it’s time to get to the real world of world. Don’t let your A+ Overshadow your opportunity to grow

3. Dont sit at your desk all day
“An internship isn’t just about the work, it’s also about seeing if you like working at a company, and if it’s a good fit. It’s important to meet new people and learn about the business. Reach out to people for coffee or lunch. Make time to get to know your colleagues”.

Lastly, don’t think you’ve already gotten the full job.

Continue job hunting.

Send out at least five applications a day.

Good luck.

Interview Tip

“Tell me about yourself” is not an invitation to tell your life story.

Interviewers want to know:
1. Who you are professionally
2. What you’ve achieved
3. Why you’re a fit for the role

Keep it relevant. Keep it concise. Keep it impactful.

Your first answer often sets the tone for the entire interview.

What’s the toughest interview question you’ve faced?

Is Dismissal a type of Termination?
Yes, dismissal is a form of termination, but not all terminations are dismissals.

* Termination is a broad term that means the employment relationship has ended for any reason.
* Dismissal specifically refers to an employer ending an employee’s contract, usually due to misconduct, poor performance, incapacity, or operational reasons.

Examples:

* Resignation → termination initiated by the employee.
* Retirement → termination due to retirement.
* End of a fixed-term contract → termination due to contract expiry.
* Dismissal → termination initiated by the employer.

In HR and labor law, dismissal is therefore a type of termination of employment.

Know the difference.

Dismissal vs Termination: Know the Difference

Many people use these terms interchangeably, but under the Employment Code Act (ECA) of Zambia, they are not the same.

*Termination is the lawful ending of an employment contract, usually with notice or payment in lieu of notice.

*Dismissal is a form of termination that occurs due to an employee’s misconduct and may happen without notice where justified.

Quote: “Every dismissal is a termination, but not every termination is a dismissal.”

Understanding the difference can help both employers and employees protect their rights and responsibilities in the workplace.
