The workers lost their six-figure salary jobs days ago for performing the stunt in the underground pit during a work break a week earlier. A YouTube video showing the eight workers performing the convulsive dance has gone viral. The Harlem Shake is the latest craze to sweep the world, with up to 4000 videos uploaded on the internet every day. One of the sacked workers, who would not be named, accused Barminco of being too heavy-handed, claiming the tradesmen were only "having a bit of fun". But a dismissal letter shows Barminco considered the stunt a safety issue and a breach of its "core values of safety, integrity and excellence". The letter noted that Barminco would not allow the dancing workers "to be subcontracted by Barminco at any site domestically and globally" and said the electrical contractor did not have any other vacancies. The unnamed worker said up to 15 people were sacked, including a handful who watched the stunt as it was performed but who did not participate. Some were considering legal action to get their jobs back. One of the breaches included the failure of some workers to wear protective equipment, however the sacked worker said the shirts had been removed to ensure the Barminco name did not appear in the video. Management had heard about the stunt from other workers and both Barminco and Hahn conducted their own investigations. A spokesman for Barminco said management could not be contacted late yesterday. lavendar_star: Bloody hell being sacked (in this economy) for doing a dance on your lunch break a bit harsh maybe some other disciplinary action but that seems very excessive, I bet it wasn't worth it lol.but it looks funny. xox G xox: Very strict OH&S rules in mines here, Id hate to be them when they tell their better halfs they've lost their 6 figure jobs. My hubby n work mates wouldnt dare be so silly. Whimsical Fairy: Harlem shake reaches new heights; FAA not amused Washington (CNN) -- It's the dance sensation that's sweeping above the nation -- at 30,000 feet. The Harlem shake has gone aloft, breaking out on commercial airline flights, and appearing in dozens of YouTube videos. Some of the videos were taped aboard planes on the ground. But the Federal Aviation Administration says it is looking into one instance of high-altitude dancing. And airline pilots, flight attendants and others say the fad presents serious safety and security problems. . "A commercial airplane in flight ... is not a dance hall, it's not an entertainment stage, it's not any of those things." "It's cute, novel, all that sort of stuff," he said, adding, "Wrong place, wrong time." harlett anathema: bet they are grateful they didn't crash the plane while at it...which is the big ta doo...even with a stewardess's permission.... | Off Topic Chat Room 1 Person Chatting Similar Conversations |
