I have been both an employee and employer, currently an employer. My thoughts, not in any particular order, and some of these may overlap a bit:

1. Loyalty. The employer needs to feel that the employee is loyal to both the manager/supervisor and to the company. If the employee only sees his/her side of pay, scheduling, task assignment, and other issues, the employer may feel a lack of loyalty. However, this is a two-way street.

2. Productivity. Timeliness in assignment completion is important. Of course there must be leverage. The amount paid to the employee must be returned to the company several times over.

3. Good work habits. Punctuality, dependability, consistency, personal neatness, timeliness, getting along with others, team player and having a positive attitude are all important.

4. Trustworthy and honest. The employer should not have to continually set up new systems and policies of control and protection for the company because of the particular employee. The employee is going to have access to confidential information and must demonstrate that they can be trusted.

5. Creativity. If the employee is able to come up with better ways to do things, new markets for the business, etc., their value to the company will be strengthened.

6. Skills. The employee began the position with the necessary skills, but should work to improve their skills and capabilities during the period of employment.

7. New tasks. The employee willingly takes on new tasks, sometimes before being asked.

8. Self-Correcting. The employee should be able to see and respond to difficulties, without specific direction, and can resolve them to keep the task or project moving forward.

8. Chemistry. Of course things go better when the employee and their manager/supervisor work well together and respect each other. Both should make an effort in this area, but generally it is up to the employee to learn how to work under the company/manager/supervisor's methods, procedures, policies, and even quirks.

The employer needs to understand that most employees will leave, for one reason or another, after a period of time, but on a day-to-day basis both should work as if the position is going to be long term. The relationship should be that the employee has been paid in full at the end of each pay period, and that the employer has received value for the amount paid to that date. Hopefully the employer/employee relationship will last a long time.
