Default Re: Was there any disciplinary procedures in British R & TV factories?

Flip the problem over and look at it the other way. If they treat people like that and have so many disciplinary offences, is it a place you want to remain working at?

Obviously you don't want to leave under a cloud while this threat is being dangled over you, but you may want to look at other options once things are cleared. It seems that one threat of disciplinary action drives people out of the place before the irons have cooled. Would another one be pressure to keep working right up to the finishing time, leaving zero time for making things fully safe?

The lack of written procedures is a big no-no nowadays. Are they making things up as they go along?

Where I've worked, I'd have got a comment like "Good job you turned things off properly."
