With our countries massive unemployment rate already, we as employees in SA just cannot afford to lose even more jobs due to corporate bullying from overseas companies. <br />Our economy cannot afford it! We are talking about millions of Rands leaving the country, to enrich overseas companies and line their pockets. This money is needed so much more in our own country!<br />Schooling systems are standing up to bullying, putting systems into place to help fight it. Look at SME's as the children being bullied by the corporate companies - we need someone to stand up for them!<br />Please, an Ombudsman is needed!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8189754222857117406.post-79780301015360686712018-05-22T11:05:45.822-07:002018-05-22T11:05:45.822-07:00South Africa has huge unemployment statistics.

I have retired from one of these huge corporates and the amount of "bullying" and "favouring" taking place is at times criminal and unjust! .. A company with a strong case should be heard, reimbrsed in full, recompensated and reappointed ASAP. Only a neutral such as an Ombudsman can decide on the fate of the SME, as exhorbitant legal fees prevent the small business from pursuing their fair and unjust treatment. PLEASE PLEASE CAN THE POWERS THAT BE CONSIDER THIS ASAP. I think I could write a book (to my detriment) on the 20 yrs of working for a big corporate. It is time for exposure...
