PGSUK Response to SDK E-mails Disputing the Integrity of PGSUK Processed Personal Data

SDK disputed the integrity of the personal data being processed by PGS Exploration UK Limited immediately after receiving it. PGS Exploration UK Limited withheld my personal data from me while employed. This was a breach of my employment contract and the UK Data Protection Act 1998 (DPA). The main issues were highlighted in three (3) e-mails written by SDK to PGS Exploration UK Limited Personal Human Resources Data Processors on 5 December 2014, 6 December 2014, and 20 December 2014. It should be noted that the HR Manager, David Nicholson, was a principal subject of the 20 September 2013 delivered formal grievance that accused Nicholson of bullying, harassment, discrimination, violation of UK Labor Laws, PGS UK Personnel Handbook Policy, and defamation. I believe there is a conflict of interest and several legal compliance issues regarding Nicholson processing my subject access request (SAR). This points to top Petroleum Geo-Services (Norway) [PGS] mis-management and non-compliance. It also points to PGS’ directing legal counsels involved in the settlement contract negotiations to utter forged instruments to affect an illegal termination (bribery). Legal counsel endorsement of the settlement contract has rendered complaints to Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO), who oversee DPA, mute. There needs to be an external government law enforcement investigation of all the actors involved in the alleged fraud conspiracy to utter forged documents to defame and blacklist a foreign worker whistleblower.

PGS Exploration UK Limited (the “Company”) directors and secretary when the 24 July 2013 letter was written and delivered to SDK. Was this letter legal and compliant to UK labor laws and Company policy? (PGSUK Directors: Jon Erik Reinhardsen, PGS CEO and President; Gottfred Langseth, PGS CFO and EVP; Christin Steen-Nilsen, PGS Chief Accountant. Secretary: Candida Pinto, PGSUK Lawyer.)

PGS Exploration UK Limited (the “Company”) directors and secretary when the 20 September 2013 formal grievance was delivered. Note the 11 September 2013 original scheduled meeting time. (PGSUK Directors: Jon Erik Reinhardsen, PGS CEO and President; Gottfred Langseth, PGS CFO and EVP; Christin Steen-Nilsen, PGS Chief Accountant. Secretary: Carl Richards, PGSUK Lawyer)
PGS Key Legal Compliance Personnel: Rune Olav Pedersen, PGS General Counsel and Terje Bjølseth, PGS SVP Global Human Resources. Note that Bjølseth was a recipient of the 20 September 2013 formal grievance document and also chaired a subsequent 14 October 2013 grievance hearing.
Terje Bjølseth, PGS SVP Global Human Resources (HR), subordinate David Nicholson, PGSUK HR Manager, was a subject in the grievance accused of misconduct and breach of PGSUK policy and contract. Nicholson proffered a settlement contract agreement to SDK 10 October 2013 to stop the grievance process. I do not believe that this was legal or compliant. According to Gov.uk website, such an offer would be a breach of contract, i.e., Nicholson was knowingly in breach of a contract which he had signed. Is this evidence of a conspiracy to defraud? I contacted Philip Landau with LZW Solicitors on 10 October 2013 regarding this proffered settlement contract agreement in response to my grievance. So, why didn’t my (eventually) hired counsel, Philip Landau, with LZW alert me of these issues? I believe Landua was compromised. Philip Landau became a principal at Landau Law, formed in February 2014.

20 September 2013 Grievance – Key Points

According to this letter, written on behalf of PGSUK, the only people who processed my personnel file contents were: David Nicholson (DN), Simon Cather (SC), Laura Haswell (LH), Anna Stokle (AS), and Gareth Jones (GJ). This does not make sense! The referenced submitted grievance was e-mailed to DNs supervisor, Terje Bjølseth (TB), PGS SVP Global Human Resources. SC was also a subject of 20 September 2013 grievance. SCs supervisor was PGS EVP, Per Arild Reksnes (PAR). TB and PAR chaired a 14 October 2013 grievance hearing. They never processed my personnel file contents? The 20 September 2013 grievance was a response to a 24 July 2013 letter written on behalf of PGSUK and signed by DN. The directors and secretary never processed my personnel file contents? How could PGSUK make the claims within the 24 July 2013 letter without processing the contents of my PGSUK personnel file? TB and PAR authored a Memo, 25 October 2013, while Philip Landau was engaged as my solicitor that I believe is a forger document being uttered as my personal data to support an illegal performance based termination of a foreign worker whistleblower.

The 20 September 2013 Grievance was SDKs Response to the 24 July 2013 Letter (Ambush Letter) from PGSUK to SDK and signed by David Nicholson

There was no 11 September 2013 Meeting! The meeting date was changed to 20 September 2013. The grievance was delivered on 20 September 2013. This change was never made to the 24 July 2013 letter, written on behalf of PGSUK, being processed within my personnel file.
