Transcription of the account that occurred at Comperj

“Last Friday (11/8/19), several employees left their sectors to clock out. It was still 4:00 PM and the distance from some sectors to the clock was far. It is only allowed to clock out from 4:15 PM onwards on Fridays and Saturdays, and on holidays … On normal days, it is at 5:15 PM.

“Therefore, with so many people in the wrong place, management found it better to dismiss the employees as punishment, with over fifty from all areas, including supervisors setting a bad example.
On Monday (11/11/19), the dismissals of the employees began, with more than 50 meant to be on Saturday”, concluded the employee in a message sent to our team.
