How the EPO Imposes Secrecy Around Mock 'Trials' and What the EPO Calls 'Violence'

Summary: Threatening letters sent to people inside the EPO to coerce them into silence, or impose a total lack of involvement in unjust show trials (union-busting moves)

R

epresentatives of EPO staff are under extreme pressure because management of the EPO is squeezing them really hard whilst attempting to maintain the appearance of calm (like the bogus 'social' dialogue initiated at the middle of last year). People mustn't be misled by the appearance of calm. It leads to dangerous passivity and can only ever prevent justice.

"People mustn't be misled by the appearance of calm."We have decided to disclose the following letter sent by Team Battistelli a few months ago. One can clearly see the level of threats (to one's job) for merely discussing an ongoing bogus 'investigation' (in practice union-busting). Notice the severity of the threats in page 1:

Letter for secrecy



In page 2 we finally see what the EPO laughably deems "violence" (the PR strategy which paints EPO management as the victim). It's some private posting which was already removed anyway.

Letter for secrecy



Here again are demands for secrecy. What kind of human rights standards are these? How can the EPO pretend to be a public institution? It abuses people (to whom ILO is too slow to help) and those who dare to speak about this abuse are themselves being accused of abuse (for merely communicating these matters). It is a cyclic thing.

The EPO is an exceptionally abusive enterprise. Thankfully, actions are being taken against the EPO at several levels right now, as we shall show in the coming weeks.

EPO staff needs to start communicating these matters and properly organise against this abusive management.
