Boss Doesn’t Like You? Blacklisted!
Later this month, the National Staff Dismissal Register (NSDR) is expected to go live.
Organisers say that major companies including Harrods, Selfridges, Reed Managed Services and Mothercare have already signed up to the scheme. By the end of May they will be able to check whether candidates for jobs have faced allegations of stealing, forgery, fraud, damaging company property or causing a loss to their employers and suppliers.
Workers sacked for these offences will be included on the register, regardless of whether police had enough evidence to convict them. Also on the list will be employees who resigned before they could face disciplinary proceedings at work.
This is unthinkable. Gordon Brown and Jacqui Smith wonder why their popularity is in free-fall - people don’t appreciate how they have it so good? They blame the government for economic forces out of the government’s control? What about they realise this is yet another illiberal scheme concocted by the Home Office and know exactly whom to blame? Watch for this scheme to creep into areas it wasn’t intended for, and as usual to hurt the most vulnerable.
