Work Christmas Party

[TheUlteriorMotive]

Big London law firms have rules where if a senior has consensual sex with a junior they will be fined and sanctioned.

Recent UK law society case sanctioned a partner for such behaviour.

Partner in a UK firm killed himself last year after an investigation was opened into some inappropriate behaviour at Christmas party.

A lot of it is the growth in big companies of the HR business where HR try to muscle in on everything and push agendas to further their own careers and make HR central to everything.

Games gone. Although not in Germany

Single breast grope not sackable offence, says European court | Employment...

#metoo hasn’t helped either. Perhaps HR people are using it to push their own agenda.

Can I just say I am in not in anyway condoning any inappropriate carry on by drink fuelled egomaniacs.

More wimmin, more forredners = a big happy pie-chart of inclusivity. Probably with a smiley face. How much was she charging again?

1 Supervisor suspended for groping a woman.

6 lads fired for flashing their knob out in front of HR.

…Work Christmas parties with lots of booze days are numbered. Lot of stuff that was shrugged off is now leading to formal complaints, investigations and career consequences.It’s becoming a tightrope people won’t choose to walk too much longer.

Christmas parties are a pain in the arse.

…lk to us about it.She explained that a recent high court ruling held that after a woman was groped on a completely independent date by a work colleague, the company was liable because, and I quote “the couple wouldn’t have met had it not been for them working together”You literally couldn’t make it up

Any lass or a lawyer?

…inefield. I asked her could you do what your man in the office did, and put half the cvs in the bin saying “that’s got rid of the unlucky ones, we don’t want unlucky people working here”After warning us about farces such as the original above, she said yes, that was fine, as it was non-discriminatory.

Have you done “unconscious bias” training yet? It’s the new scam.

We had to do that a few weeks ago.

A scam alright.

[TheUlteriorMotive]

All the research shows it is bollox. No way of testing if it has any effect or benefit. Like most corporate training.

HR driven agendas to make themselves more relevant.

HR believe they are the most important part of the organisation.

[balbec]

I did it and the system never recorded that I did it. Still getting cunting reminders.

[TheUlteriorMotive]

HR and their “messaging”.

[balbec]

They love firing people though. Absolutely fatten on it.

[TheUlteriorMotive]

They love to settle then as they cannot be wrong. Very few of them have the balls to run an unfair dismissals claim as that can blow up in their face.
