Topic Name: UBS Warburg Corporate Bully's Smear Campaign
Message Name: Employee control reaches well beyond the work place
Date Posted: 04/06/2003
Message: Smear campaigns: Increasingly the use of vicious and malicious smear/whispering campaigns are being reported in the press against high profile people. They are a very effective means of organisational bullying, allowing incidents to be manufactured, rationalising unethical and immoral information gathering, frequently becoming personal assaults, enable mobbing and control of the target, and can have the effect of destroying lives and careers. I would like anyone who has been subjected to this treatment, knows of, or has witnessed this form of behaviour in any sector of the community to comment here. Indicate the forms they take, the means used to counter them, and the outcomes. UBS Warburg uses private detective firms to dig up and manufacture dirt on exemployees. The company uses this information to intimidate, and selectively passes it on to associates and colleagues of the employee, as well as future employers. It happens randomly, and coincides with retrenchments
