Shell’s jab or be sacked dilemma

By John Donovan

The jab or be sacked dilemma is not an easy issue for Shell senior management to grapple with.

Shell senior management had hoped to make its deliberations in private. read more

[Y]ou should understand the value of diversity and must not discriminate in any way based on race, colour, religion, age, gender, sexual orientation, gender identity, marital status, disability, ethnic origin or nationality.” read more

Shell sues former head of security for threatening to reveal secrets
