What is one of the most common reasons technicians are dismissed from their jobs?

Dependability is a crucial attribute for technicians in any field, including those working on school buses. Employers rely on technicians to consistently show up for work on time, complete tasks effectively, and adhere to safety protocols and policies. When dependability is lacking, it can lead to disruptions in operations, delays in service, and increased stress for other team members who may need to cover for an unreliable worker. In environments where children’s safety is a priority, the importance of dependability magnifies, making it a key reason for termination if not demonstrated. Technicians who cannot be counted on to fulfill their responsibilities may find themselves facing dismissal more readily than those with deficiencies in areas such as education, mechanical skills, or productivity, as those can often be improved with training or support.
