🌟 Employee of the month 🌟
Our employee of the month for August and winner of £50 cash goes to our legendary runner and potwash Albert. He's come a long way since joining us at the start... From 11.30pm finishes in the potwash, with the walls and ceilings covered in fat and grease... To 4 weeks later having the dishwasher shut down at 10.15pm and the whole place spotless!

On Wednesday, video of a customer attempting to assault a female employee at a Sheikhupura, Punjab, location of a multinational KFC went viral.
A consumer is seen charging the employee at the payment counter in the video. The 'culprit' is then thrashed by staff members inside the eatery during the ensuing commotion.

In my 20 years as an HR leader, I always took employees’ concerns seriously, especially when they came to me for help with a harassment situation. I investigated every allegation fully, held harassers accountable, and did it with as much transparency as possible so the whole company would know that these behaviors were tolerated in our workplace.
But it wasn’t until #MeToo went viral that I recognized the ways that I, as an HR leader, had unintentionally participated in a culture of harassment.
I can’t tell you how many times an employee came to me with a sensitive concern and I was prevented from telling them the full story. Why couldn’t I disclose to Jane that her harasser had several other harassment complaints already? Or advise Terrance not to quit just yet because his position was due to be eliminated next quarter and he’d get severance if he waited? Why couldn’t I tell Mia that she should ask for a raise because Marcus was being paid more for the same job?
Of course, I’d get fired for sharing this kind of information. Why? Because my job was to protect the company, not the employee.
Once I saw it, I couldn’t unsee it. I felt compelled to speak up. So I launched @HRuprise on Instagram and began posting my own commentary about the problematic side of HR.
The response was immediate, and I realized this was more than just a social media account — this was the beginning of a movement. This movement inspired me to create a new, independent model for HR that puts employee interests first.
I’m so glad you’re with me on this journey. Check out hruprise.com for our offerings for employees, business leaders and companies, and join us in building more radically-human workplaces. ❤️
