Hiring 'Block Lists' On The Rise #WorkplaceEthics #EmployeeBlocking #RecruitmentTrends #shorts

Companies are using hiring "block lists" but is this a bad thing or a good thing? There pros and cons to something like this but if done in the right way they can actually be rather useful.

In the Business Inside article there was a link to a Reddit thread and pretty much all of the comments there were from people who were not surprised that block lists exist, and neither am I.

We block people on social media all of the time so is it fair for an organization to block an employee if they have caused problems at the organization? I don't think so.

However, if employees are just being blocked in a random fashion where a manager just doesn't like someone, then that's just silly and can lead to missed opportunities.

What do you think of hiring block lists? Does your company have them and are they a good thing or a bad thing? Leave a comment and let me know what you think.
