A district official in Seoul made a threatening remark that he would not allow a new government official to work as a civil servant less than a few months after he came in.Reporter Park Chan-beom reported that he experienced this after taking issue with seniors falsely applying for allowances or travel expenses.
New civil servant A still shivers when he hears this voice recording.This is a conversation between Mr. A and two human resources managers in December last year, when he became a public servant for five months.The head of the HR team threatens to lose his hard-earned civil service status to Mr. A.
A insists the pressure began after rejecting the unfair demand.I was surprised that the seniors of
gu District Office were so falsely paid overtime and travel expenses, and I refused to recommend them to join the false claim, so I started to give them a look.
I asked her to stop cheating, and she said the bullying got worse.
A submitted a transcript of related records and verbal abuse, including commuting of 19 employees who have illegally obtained allowances, to the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission and the Seoul Metropolitan Government, but these agencies say they need more time.Four months after
A raised the issue, she is barely holding out on her depression medication while several organizations for help are silent.
The Nowon-gu, Seoul, explained that the interview was conducted because there were many comments about A’s working attitude, and that it was acknowledged that the personnel manager’s words and actions were not appropriate!
