One Sub One VoteWhen the Labour Party took the vote it was well coming.

This should have been done under Neil Kinnock.

I have voted Conservative since I got the age of 18. A big question has to be asked if you are going to destroy all the Unions some are very good and some

are very bad. Who will take their place and is there a vacant place now? Someone has to take this position and will Government and Political Parties

actually do a job of what you expect from a modern Union? I don’t think they have the resources or the time to be dealing with certain companies and

corporations in the UK.

Oh that bad!

I used to work on Business and Corporate for Orange and France Telecom.

Harassment strategies at the workplace: The case of France Télécom Orange

It’s approximately two French Documentaries that were aired on French TV and put in to English Subtitles it’s approximately an hour and 15 minutes

long.

I was not a member at the CWU or Communication Workers Union but that should not make a difference. I even said I would forgo certain benefits and pay a whole year’s subscription upfront just so I could get some help. Again

please view the YouTube Video and Text it is most evident in the UK this disturbing behavior.

This has been ongoing for 7 years now and I have presented three presentations including a Serious Fraud Report on Orange and FT to major

Government Sources and Parties. The CWU blocked my e-mails. I had reported to them over 7 years and each time I got zero response and was

totally ignored. Why would you have to beg a Union the correct Union for your job to get involved? The CWU just did not want to know or do their jobs or participate in any shape or form. At EE which was a formation of T-Mobile and Orange UK there are approximately 15,000 employees. There are only I think in total 500 Subscriptions to the CWU. That’s very poor coverage and

you can see why.

The CWU had a major casting vote at the Labour Party before One Sub One Vote came in to place. I cannot be the only person let down by the CWU and a Union. I don’t think the Labour Party had much choice. A large majority of

Unions would have dragged the Labour Party to the ground.

This is a major attraction for long term voters to the Conservative Party. The Conservative Party needs to understand this as well. They need to know

there current views on Unions are bad and from 30 years ago which in my view were correct for the time. People need to build for the future and not

isolate and alienate people and parties across the UK.

Why we need to burn Unions to the ground from the Conservatives is plain stupid thinking. It’s backward and clearly people are not listening. It’s do or die time for many Unions and they need to adapt to a new Modern Britain. There is a place for a Modern Union otherwise the place might as well be

vacant and would be better vacant as a Union doing no job at all causes even further problems and greater frustrations. It’s more than embarrassing when having to deal with Corporations on your own especially the likes of Orange

and EE and FT.

The amount of professional people involved with no comment to spare from myself again the amount of professional people involved from Government and Parties is plainly ridiculous its bigger than a Public Enquiry which should

and needs to happen over this.

Harassment strategies at the workplace: The case of France Télécom Orange

ART

After its privatisation and the buyout of the British company Orange, the French corporation France Télécom Orange has appeared often in the media because of a striking wave of

suicides among its employees. Dozens of employees of this company have committed suicide since 2008 (and counting). This includes a tragic self-immolation in April 2011.

Some have blamed the plan NeXT, started in 2006, which contemplated 22,000 job cuts during a period of 3 years. Provided that an official labour force adjustment plan could

potentially be expensive for the company, the corporate strategists devised a programme aimed at making people willing to leave. In the frame of this plan, managers were offered

bonuses which were proportional to the number of employees they were able to get rid of. In addition, they also received training on psychological manipulation techniques.

The result was a case of massive organised harassment and psychological abuse at the workplace. As a direct consequence of such a plan, and, in addition to the dozens of suicides and suicide attempts, it is estimated that thousands of employees and former employees of

France Télécom Orange are receiving psychological or psychiatric advice. Most of them are also being medicated with antidepressants.

HARASSMENT IN THE CORPORATE ENVIRONMENT

The fact is that the manipulation strategies and techniques used by France Télécom Orange are far from being exceptional and, to a larger or lesser extent, have become pretty much the standard way of managing human resources in many corporations (and even, increasingly, in

public agencies).

This video shows some of the techniques more commonly employed: systematic harsh interviews, absurd recriminations, setting unattainable tasks, social and/or physical isolation

and ostracisation, transfer to a different city, assignment of degrading tasks, assignment of no project or of too many projects, having people travelling continuously from one company site

to another for no good reason, inducing guilt feelings, etc.

The objectives are usually either forcing people to leave (but by forcing them to "choose" leaving) or exhausting them to make them accept terms that they would not accept in normal

conditions.

Targets for harassment may become as well those managers who refuse to implement these psychological torture programmes.
