Chapter 78: Elite Attorney, Legal Education Campaign
The next day, morning, at the Changfeng Garment Factory.
Tang Qiu glanced around the office and noticed that the layout was different from the last time she had visited.
Whether it was the computers, the desks and chairs, or the potted plants, everything was quite expensive.
This President Chen really knew how to spend money on himself!
"This is the contract. Attorney Tang, please take a look. If there are no issues, we can sign it."
Once Tang Qiu sat down, Chen Mo pushed the contract he had prepared in advance toward her.
Tang Qiu took the contract and began to read it carefully.
After a long while, she frowned slightly and looked up at Chen Mo.
"President Chen, there are no major issues with this contract, but there is a detail that needs to be changed."
"Oh? Is there a problem?"
Chen Mo looked at Tang Qiu in surprise. All the employees in his company had signed this same contract!
"President Chen, there is no need to worry. This issue is just a small hidden risk, it won't have much impact."
"It's about our company's policy of paying salaries in advance. The contract only states that salaries for the current month are paid at the beginning of the month, but it doesn't specify what happens if an employee resigns without working the full month."
"Therefore, I think we should add a clause stating that if an employee resigns before completing a full month, they must return the salary for the days they did not work."
"Otherwise, if some malicious people find this loophole, they could keep arranging for different people to join and then resign just to cash out, which would be troublesome."
As she spoke, Tang Qiu picked up a pen, opened the contract, and added a provision under one of the clauses.
Then she handed it back to Chen Mo.
"Add the part I wrote by hand, print a new copy, and then I will sign the contract."
Chen Mo took the contract and looked at the new provision Tang Qiu had added. It was reasonable and not an unfair clause. What could he do? He had no choice but to hand it over to Shen Rou to have a new contract made according to Tang Qiu's requirements.
On her first day, no, she hadn't even officially started yet, and Tang Qiu had already plugged a potential loophole that could have cost the company money.
Chen Mo began to wonder if hiring Tang Qiu was the right decision.
A while later, Shen Rou finished modifying and printing the contract and gave it back to Tang Qiu.
Tang Qiu took the contract, confirmed there were no issues, and then signed it.
She had officially become an employee of the company.
"President Chen, where is my workstation?"
After signing the contract, Tang Qiu looked at Chen Mo and asked. Since she had signed the contract, she was now an official employee of the company, so naturally, she had to go to her workstation to work.
Chen Mo's body stiffened upon hearing this.
He had only thought about hiring Tang Qiu to spend the System Funds.
He had completely forgotten about where Tang Qiu would work. At the moment, there were no empty offices in the Garment factory.
The company's finance, accounting, and HR staff were still working from home.
After thinking for a moment, he looked up at Tang Qiu and said with a hint of embarrassment.
"Attorney Tang, you see, our company doesn't have any extra offices for the time being. How about you work from home for a while?"
"Don't worry, if you work from home, we will provide the corresponding food and housing subsidies."
Tang Qiu's expression became a bit strange as she listened to Chen Mo.
She found that she was increasingly unable to understand this boss. He had spent a large sum of money to hire her, only to let her work from home.
Logically speaking, if you spent a lot of money to hire an employee, shouldn't you be squeezing every bit of value out of them?
But with Chen Mo, he didn't arrange any work and just told her to work from home.
"President Chen, there must be something to do, like some risk assessment or something similar."
Chen Mo thought about it. If he spent a large sum of money to hire Tang Qiu and didn't let her do anything, it might be judged by the system as passive sabotage.
"How about this, Attorney Tang? The company doesn't have any important matters for you to resolve at the moment, but many of the company's employees haven't received much education."
"Prepare yourself to give a legal education lecture to the company employees in a couple of days, so they can learn more about the relevant laws and regulations."
"A legal education campaign? I understand. I will organize the materials as soon as possible."
Tang Qiu nodded upon hearing this. It was indeed very important for a company to popularize legal knowledge among its employees.
"Attorney Tang, it's still early. You can let Assistant Shen show you around the company environment."
"Then I'll be troubling you."
Tang Qiu nodded. Since she had become a part of the company, it was only right for her to familiarize herself with the company environment.
…
Employee cafeteria.
"Uncle Wang, how is it? What do you think of this sensor door? Only employees with a company access card can enter. Plus, I will upgrade it every so often, so even if other employees pick up a lost card, it won't work."
"Has anyone else snuck into the cafeteria these past few days?"
Li Shen sat on a chair, looking at Wang Maonian, who was sitting opposite him.
"You really have a way with things. Ever since we installed the sensor door, no employees from other factories have come in."
Wang Maonian sighed with emotion. Ever since the company cafeteria started cooking, people from other factories would come into the cafeteria from time to time.
It was one thing to eat there; with his own workshop employees watching, those who snuck in could be discovered quickly.
What gave him the biggest headache was that some people would sneak up to the second-floor recreational room to play while he was cooking downstairs.
Even if they went to the second floor to play for a while, that would be fine, but they needed to be careful.
They would just throw cigarette butts on the floor, didn't care for the facilities at all, and even stole things.
One day, when his own employees went to the second floor to play after getting off work, they suddenly discovered that one billiard ball was missing, a ping pong paddle was also missing, and another one was broken; it seemed like someone had used the paddle to smash something.
They checked the surveillance footage and found out who did it, but this Industrial Park was too big, and they never found the person.
It was just that President Chen had a good temper. After he told President Chen about this, President Chen just told him to find Li Shen to replace the damaged and lost items with new ones.
But now that the sensor door was installed, he had much less to worry about, and no one from other factories had snuck in again.
"Having a solution isn't enough; the leadership must be wise. This sensor door isn't cheap, but President Chen approved it without a second thought."
Li Shen said with admiration.
"Indeed, President Chen is great in every way, except that the morning exercise is too painful. You don't know, but I've lost over ten jin these past few days."
Wang Maonian couldn't help but complain, then he thought of a question and looked at Li Shen.
"There is still one problem in the cafeteria now. I think it should be solved."
"What other problem is there?"
Li Shen's eyes lit up upon hearing this. Since becoming the head of the Procurement and Life Department, his daily life had instantly become much more leisurely.
