* Immediate dismissal - the language isn&#x27;t in any kind of gray zone - completely inappropriate. This person will damage your company if you keep them on.
* Make sure they&#x27;re not able to make a scene. No access to email or the premises at the point of dismissal. You don&#x27;t want them causing further damage to the team.
* Make it clear the issue is wholly between you and them, this is your action, decision and responsibility.
