Something like "f**k me where could I have left that CD?"

The register is an initiative of Action Against Business Crime (AABC), a partnership between the Home Office and the British Retail Consortium.

Set up by Surrey-based firm Hicom Business Solutions, the database will allow employers to search for potential workers by name, address, date of birth, national insurance number and previous employer.


I bet agencies will love this and contractors who won't accept a rate cut will go straight on.

When it goes online I will ask for my details. Any agency that puts my name up is in trouble.

Then I will apply for nw jobs using my alias.

You're quite right...

Or the worker can simply sue for libel.

In my case I will be suing you for discrimination and victimisation.

Much cheaper than a libel case.

and I bet if you write to them demanding to retrieve any data pertaining to yourself (data protection act) and you will in turn be black listed.

I'm quite suprised that nothing like this has ever been put in place before tbh.

The thing is that one day someone will fail a credit check, go on a search to find out why only to find that some spiteful t*sser falsely decided to black list them on the db and then its off to the courts morning , noon and night.

The business plan for the company holding the database must have an army of lawyers and legals representatives otherwise it would collapse within 1 month.

The world is going crazy ... keep a dossier of everone at work and use it against them covertly why not ... mail their future employees ... mail personnel and inform them that Joe Bloggs has too many toilet breaks so they should not get a rise this year !... the world has gone mad I tell ya ..!

I'm sure the information comissioner might have something to say regarding this...

Websites allowing contractors to publish reviews of agencies have generally fallen foul of threats of legal action by agencies "defamed" by the comments. I look forward to this Orwellian blacklist suffering the same fate.

NB if in the Police (or an MP) you get to retire on a fat pension on health grounds if caught with fingers in the till

Workers sacked for these offences will be included on the register, regardless of whether police had enough evidence to convict them. Also on the list will be employees who resigned before they could face disciplinary proceedings at work.

So, if you're accused of "stealing, forgery, fraud, damaging company property or causing a loss to their employers and suppliers", make sure you don't resign. And if you're sacked, sue for unfair dismissal.

I wonder if workers will be extended to "suppliers employees".

Should a dispute take place between an employee and an employer about whether an incident occurred, Mr Schuck adds, the worker will be able to appeal to the Information Commissioner's Office.

Or the worker can simply sue for libel.
