Harrods and Selfridges have joined a controversial database which "blacklists" former employees and suggests their unsuitability for future jobs. The National Dismissal Register collects the names and personal details of former staff whose behaviour upset their managers.
Members of the online register can then conduct checks to see if potential recruits have been blacklisted for their actions in previous jobs. Seven firms have signed up so far, including Reed Managed Services and Mothercare, and the scheme could potentially affect an estimated 3 million workers.
