FAS - Workplace Faux Pas

FAS - MISMANAGEMENT OF FUNDS , BIASDNESS AND SLAVE LABOUR
FAS complaints of abuse and mismanagement, are at an all time high, FAS registered employees has risen by nearly 50 pc. Staffing levels to cope with this has only risen by 5 pc. FAS in recent years has come under attack, due to media reports,including recent documentation on fas activity in Castlebar and other towns across Ireland..
They even recieved funding for a FAS space project!! which has nothing to do with increasing job prospects for the unemployed of Ireland.
![Click on image to see full-sized version FAS IN SPACE](../attachments/aug2010/imagesoffasinspace.jpeg) FAS IN SPACE Their tight 1 Billion Euro budget is apparentely NOT ENOUGH FOR FAS MANAGEMENT.
On the CE scheme one is in reciept of 216 Euro respectively (this has gone down from 228 Euros for one single person), there has been a cut on the christmas bonus, and disablity, and they are also thinking of cutting FAS CE payments further.
Even in the days of the Celtic Tiger, FAS has had it's fair share of complaints, ranging from unfair dismissal, to biasdness, bullying,sexual harassment, and general inequality for not just community employment workers (ce workers) but in some cases managers and supervisors.
Most FAS supervisors have admitted to having a lack of qualifications and some not even holding the basic leaving certificate standard or even diploma..
Only recently FAS Management have been put under considerable pressure to ensure FAS supervisors are put on a FAS training programme for supervisors, to ensure they know how to interact with their community employees more effectively..
Most of these reports have been blatantly ignored by government and local business,as some of these businesses support FAS.
Our current minister has even admitted, he cannot get rid of FAS, as they would not have the facilities in place to replace FAS.
While Molloy and Harney were off abroad, and living the life, the FAS offices were innundated with complaints.
FAS have been reported to have sent out inadequately trained apprentices for manual labour on building sites,which obviously has the most dangerous health and safety implications. They had to do a recall of all these workers and retrain them.
There has also been reports in local media and the irish times on the fas lease scandal which has rolled on into the year 2010,the lease was first purchased in early 2000..
The government to date have BLATANLTLY AND BOLDLY REFUSED, to take appropriate action on FAS MANAGEMENT AND THEIR SUPERVISORS.
EVENTHOUGH FAS SEEMS TO BE CHURNING OUT SCANDAL AFTER SCANDAL.
In recent reports in the irish times, to iron out any further complications, FAS will be answering to TWO MINISTERS, NOT ONE..
