Spanking done by a professional trainer.
By Dileep Thekkethil
Social media has gone into a frenzy over a video wherein a professional trainer can be seen spanking eight bank employees for poor performance, in China.
The video caught on camera by a fellow employee who was seated among the audience was shared on Facebook by People’s Daily.
The employees of the Changzhi Rural Commercial Bank who reportedly performed poor compared to others were called on to the stage by the trainer who can be heard on the video asking the eight employees why they not “exceed themselves” to which, one of them answered that the person failed to make a “personal breakthrough”.
Before starting the spanking trainer asks the eight employees, including two women, to “get your butts ready” and after the announcement he starts spanking which he continues four rounds.
While the trainer doesn’t show any intention of stopping, one of the girls who can be seen in pain can be seen jumping out of the row.
People’s Daily China reported that the trainer issued a public apology and the president of the bank has been suspended. The bank has also ordered an internal inquiry.
“When I first saw this, I thought it was another cheap public relations stunt from a bank but I can’t believe this is real,” a Weibo user has been quoted as saying. “This is nothing but degrading and it’s so obscene to watch, where are the leadership values?” said another.
The bank said it has stopped the training session immediately and asked the Leadership Academy and its trainer to openly apologize. The bank also confirmed that it suspended several managing personnel from the branch. Compensation is likely to be given to the spanked employees, said the announcement.
