프랑스 최고의 자살회사

 

What’s going on at this company? 26 employees have committed suicide in the past two years. Stress is part of just about every job. But at one company, it’s having deadly consequences. France Telecom is undergoing a major restructuring with the goal of cutting $2.25 billion in expenses. But as the company strives to save money, Sheila Macvicar tells us it’s losing employees to an epidemic of suicide.

 

“I was about to commit a suicide.” It was a year ago when Ludovic Nouclerq began hallucinating환각에 빠지다 about hanging himself. He was a manager for France Telecom. He’d just been told he’d failed to achieve corporate goals, a common enough experience in the working world. But Nouclerq claims that in the case of this giant company, undermining음흉한 수단으로 훼손하다 employees is a deliberate고의적인 management strategy, one that has led to suicide. "I knew that what I will do won't be successful." “So you were basically being set to fail?” “Yeah. Yeah. Sure. Sure.”

 

Three years ago, France Telecom began a massive re-organization, cutting one fifth of the workforce. Since then, employees have been going to a lot of funerals with 26 suicides in the last 18 months. A suicide rate slightly higher than that of France overall, and far higher than in the United States. Most often, work isn’t the reason for suicide. But in these cases, many of those who have committed suicide or have attempted suicide at France Telecom have directly blamed the company and management for creating working conditions that made their lives intolerable참을 수 없는.

 

The suicides and dozens of attempts are happening all over the French network. Suicide notes tell similar stories, blaming constant pressure to resign, impossible goals, frequent forced relocations and chaotic reorganization. This woman jumped to her death from her fifth floor office window after she was told her job was changing yet again and that she was being assigned to another new boss. "I'd rather die," she wrote. Yonnel Dervin stabbed himself in the stomach at work after his manager told him he no longer had the skills the company needed. You're in your own bubble. Too bad. It's a bubble without oxygen. You understand? You just can't live anymore."

 

The company's CEO booed by employees after yet another suicide and pressured by the French government to stop the deaths, has had to announce the suspension중지 of job transfers and corporate re-organization at least until the end of the year. But suicide attempts at the company continue and no one thinks those measures will put an end to this epidemic any time soon. Sheila Macvicar, CBS News, Paris.
