18. Fading/Follow Along Begin the very first day of work Keep track of any and all support provided Don’t think of it as one; expect multiple supports Use data to make decisions Be prepared; leave nothing to chance Be proactive; don’t wait until it happens Develop an on-going support plan Monitor and respond

21. Addressing Retention Issues 1.Employer reports that a new job task was given to the employee several weeks ago and he is performing at 50%, the job requires a 98% accuracy. 2.There had been a change in management and the employee’s job task now requires that she work at a steady and sometimes fast rate. 3.Assessment information indicates the employee had low endurance but the employer has expanded the work hours and the new schedule will require the employee to work for hours without a break. 4.Assessment information states the individual requires a routine and cannot have changes at the job; the company reorganization has created a change in job duty schedules so that the employee’s work routine has been altered and the employer reports disruptive screaming and a refusal to work.
