Hi guys,
To explain as briefly as possible; we had a gentleman from a third party presenting to myself and colleagues, about a pension scheme the company intends to put in place. We do not currently have one. The company is obviously the client of this financial consultants.
Upon entering the meeting room, with around 10 people in, I noted everybody had a bound A4 pack. I then received one from the presenter - with no discretion. On the immediate front of the pack were my personal details, age of birth etc. and my SALARY!
Out of inquisition, I glanced at the packs of two of my colleagues to find it wasn't simply coincidence and that the financial details weren't common to all merely as an example - they were tailored to suit the individual. I immediately turned mine face down, though most people were oblivious, and had them face up for all and sundry to see!
The two colleagues' salaries that I did see also raise concerns; I don't think I earn my worth (how many times do we read that on here) and the prospect for me might not be so lucrative.
I am pretty certain that given the lack of discretion on the part of the presenting consultant could cause serious morale issues in a company with around 35 people. I am sure my case is not unique!
I'd be delighted to hear your opinions on the matter!
Thanks in advance!
