To avoid this kind of behavior companies should appoint only educated and talented persons having self-respect after taking interviews. When a company recruits the managers, it is company duty to train their employees in professional ethics and teach them a proper way of doing a job with self-respect. Higher authorities should demoralize them with this kind of soapy behaviors.
