STAFF DISCIPLINE 5

 This week, I share with you an unusual staff disciplinary experience which I have shared in waiting with nobody.

I worked in this particular company where the first four stages of the Disciplinary Procedure which I shared on June 16, 2021, were not followed.


For my conscience sake when disciplinary action recommendations came from Line Managers, I went to the shop-floor to confirm from both parties.

In this unusual case a lady was being sent on 2 weeks suspension without pay for gross insubordination.

With physical evidence, the lady proved sexual abuse against the Line Manager.


When I confronted the Line Manager with the proof of Sexual Abuse provided by the lady, the Line Manager agreed to drop the disciplinary action against the lady.

    How then did you handle the line manager for the sexual abuse metted out on the lady?

HR MISTAKES BY YOURS TRULY 6

 My refusal to accept two direct instructions from two gentlemen who were instrumental to my employment in two companies where I enjoyed working, cost yours truly those jobs because I considered those instructions as unreasonable. Firstly, I was asked to provide information that would lead to the termination of the employment of five high performing managers. My response was to send my boss a local ICBM to the effect that "a man who circumcises woman do not talk". If the man talks, he will die of hunger. Secondly, I was asked to tell half truths by my boss, which I considered to be telling lies and I refused. My boss explained further to yours truly, that what he was saying was for yours truly to play politics because politics is about half truths. He stated further that should yours truly continue to insist on the truth only, he would join others in fighting yours truly. My response to him was "you're welcome. Within five weeks of this discussion, your truly was tra...
