I refer to the article last Sunday, 'The big bad bosses'.

I was retrenched in September.

I had never been appraised as an underachiever in my nine years with the company or in my entire working life, until this year's appraisal. I was given a month's termination notice under my employment contract.

While there are many articles on this subject, with the usual 'should not' opinions on bad employers, there is no mention of what recourse or assistance one can get if one is a management employee who is not a member of any union.
