2023 is destined to be a year of elimination in the workplace, with nearly 100 million unemployed people, as well as an unknown number of people who are about to lose their jobs. A large number of unemployed people have given companies in various industries the opportunity to select talents, and also made companies move their brains.

On the one hand, it is to save labor compensation expenses and replace existing employees. Some HR made it clear that the company's boss asked him to find a way to dismiss the older employees and go to the talent market to select cheaper labor, after all, there are too many unemployed people, which can reduce the salary, and the newly recruited veterans do not need training, which can save the company a lot of salary expenses.

On the other hand, because of the general environment, the company's operation problems need to be laid off, so some companies have taken advantage of the reputation of this wave of unemployment to start their own company's layoff plans, some of which are directly laid off, and some of which force employees to "leave voluntarily".

In order to allow employees to "leave voluntarily", the means used by various companies can be described as eight immortals crossing the sea.

All kinds of weird tests.

1. Obedience test

Recently, Ms. Zhao from Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, told reporters that she chose to leave her job because of the "strange overtime requirements" of her former company. "A morning meeting at 6 a.m. and an evening party at 11 p.m. is said to be 'voluntary', but in fact it is mandatory overtime, and it is a 'compliance test';Who would 'volunteer' to work overtime?But if you don't go, you will be considered bad and disloyal. ”

2. Love situation

Teacher Zhang Xuefeng once said that some companies will ask employees whether they are in love, whether they are married, whether they have children, etc., and for example: female employees, married and childless, then HR is likely not to consider it, because they are afraid that she will be pregnant not long after recruiting someone into the company, and then she will have to take half a year of paid maternity leave, which is not in the interests of the company.

3. Pretend to be a headhunter to "fish for law enforcement".

The headhunter who came to me turned out to be an acquaintance of the boss of our company. Mr. Yang, an employee of an Internet company in Beijing, said in an interview that he did not get the company's year-end bonus after failing to change jobs, and only after many inquiries did he know that headhunting was a trap set by the company, and this move was just to grasp employee trends and test employee loyalty.

4. Test in spare time

The manager asked us to hand in thousands of words of reading notes every week, and he would also see how many steps there were on WeChat. Ms. Cui, from Zhengzhou, Henan Province, told reporters that her company also needs to assess the self-discipline of employees, "If the task is not up to standard, the leader may talk to me the next day." ”

5. Measure emotional intelligence

Mr. Liu, a fresh graduate from Anhui Province this year, said, "I worked for the previous company for three months, passed the probationary period, and was going to sign a formal contract. For each new probationary colleague in our company, the manager will assign a designated task, and then judge the level of emotional intelligence and decide whether to become a regular employee. What is unacceptable is that the object of the task is a psychological consulting company, and the owner of this psychological consulting company is the sister of our boss, and the probationary period consulting fee is paid by the company, and the regular employees are half and half of the company, each time 200 yuan, and the regular employees have to receive psychological counseling twice a year to determine whether the employee's mentality is suitable for continuing to stay."

The imbalance between labor and management has led some employers to abuse their dominant position and set up strange examinations for workers. "In addition, the degree of compliance of enterprise management is insufficient, resulting in the inability to grasp the boundaries of management in practice and abuse of management authority." ”

A lawyer said: "The strange examination of enterprises is generally relatively hidden, and it is usually presented orally and other means, which is difficult to collect evidence."

There will also be differences in the acceptance and tolerance of different employees in the enterprise for this type of management method, which increases the difficulty of obtaining evidence and protecting rights.

Professionals claimed that some of the examination and testing methods violated the Labor Law, Labor Contract Law and other relevant laws and regulations.

Experts suggest that it is necessary to strengthen supervision and law enforcement, as well as illegal correction of arbitration and litigation, and draw a red line for the management behavior of enterprises.
