Skandal

In the context of human resources, “Skandal” (which translates to “scandal” in English) refers to an event or situation that causes public outrage or controversy within an organization. This can involve unethical behavior, legal violations, or mismanagement that undermines trust and credibility. Scandals can have significant consequences for an organization, including damage to its reputation, loss of stakeholder confidence, potential legal repercussions, and negative impacts on employee morale. HR professionals are often involved in crisis management and communication strategies when a scandal occurs, aiming to address the issues, restore reputation, and implement preventive measures to avoid future incidents.
