Skandal

In the context of human resources (HR), “Skandal” typically refers to a controversial event or situation within an organization that can lead to public outrage, damage to reputation, and potential legal consequences. This can include misconduct by employees, unethical practices, or breaches of company policy that attract media attention and scrutiny. Such scandals often require HR to manage crisis communication, investigate the matters at hand, ensure compliance with legal standards, and implement strategies to restore trust and improve the workplace culture. Effective handling of a scandal is critical for maintaining employee morale and the organization’s overall integrity.
