Vicious infiltration staff aimed at beauty clinics

Many people apply and inquire about working as staff at beauty clinics. Is it becoming a dream job for women? However, some people try to become staff in order to demand unreasonable wages targeting beauty clinics. K was a woman in her 30s who wanted to work as a receptionist and counselor at the clinic. Although she did not make a strong impression during the interview, she persistently requested that she be given a chance to work at a beauty clinic, so we decided to hold an orientation. The orientation is an opportunity to confirm the work content and clarify whether it is possible to continue working at the clinic by explaining the work at the clinic for the number of days and time desired by the person, showing a DVD, and having them observe the reception work. K persistently requested to hold more orientation days and repeatedly expressed her desire to work at the clinic at all costs. At first, I thought she was very motivated to work, but during the orientation, she began making frightening remarks to the staff. After working there for about two weeks, she began to slander and expose the inner workings of a certain beauty clinic, her previous workplace. Moreover, he started talking about how he was forced to quit his job because of harassment and bullying. He became persistent in saying that he could not forgive his previous clinic, that it was unethical, and that it was doing outrageous things. He even talked about specific management information and patient information, and it became clear that K had no concept of protecting personal information. Of course, it is impossible for a medical institution that needs to protect the privacy and personal information of patients more than any other company to employ such a person. Furthermore, during the orientation, K asked to receive cosmetic treatment and performed the treatment. Of course, it was later revealed that K had no intention of paying for the treatment, even though it cost money. After the orientation, when we told K that we could not employ him, his attitude suddenly changed, and he left, swearing at us, saying that he could not understand the work because we did not teach him carefully, and that you staff are terrible. A few days later, a threatening letter was sent to the clinic from K. The letter said that if K's salary (there was no time card, no hourly wage, and no other arrangements, and the orientation was held on the date K wanted) was not paid within three days, legal action would be taken. It also hinted at the involvement of a third party. Later, the Labor Standards Inspection Office reported that K had not paid her salary, so I had a meeting with the person in charge. The person in charge explained that K had made a ridiculous false report, saying that she had performed medical procedures even though she was not a nurse. It was also revealed that she had reported working on dates when she had not come to the clinic at all during the orientation. She had slandered the Labor Standards Inspection Office as a form of harassment. The person in charge at the Labor Standards Inspection Office was also surprised by K's misdeeds. It turned out to be a completely false report, and we requested that no workplaces be victimized in the same way in the future. We immediately contacted the director of K's previous workplace and were able to hear the circumstances and circumstances behind K's resignation. It was said that she had resigned due to problems with her abusive behavior towards staff using the same method. We were very concerned about K's extremely unfair behavior, so we carried out a thorough investigation, and new facts came to light one after another. He had visited the clinic in advance for counseling as a preliminary inspection (he denied it when questioned by the staff), had undergone surgery as a monitor at another cosmetic surgery clinic, and because he was not satisfied with the results, he slandered the clinic and avoided his responsibilities as a monitor... Information from those involved made it clear that he was a habitual perpetrator of unfair acts aimed at cosmetic clinics and to gain profits. We immediately sent a registered letter to K, informing him that we would file criminal charges if he committed any further unfair acts, and the harassment stopped. We were preparing to immediately file criminal charges with the authorities if any further slander was committed. In addition to our three clinics, we believe that many other clinics have probably been victimized by K. It was a shocking incident that there were people who infiltrated the clinic in various ways, such as orientation, staff, and monitors, and obtained inside information to blackmail or gain unfair profits in a planned manner. In order to absolutely protect the personal information of our patients, we believe that a policy of strict action against such people is necessary.
