| The Guyana Public Service Union (GPSU) has advised its members to refuse to comply with requests to be polygraphed.A press release stated that it is the unapologetic view of the organization that the use to which polygraphing has been put and executed in Guyana is a blatant abuse and misuse of authority, and that GPSU is committed to vigorously challenge and confront attempts to subject its members to such illegality.According to the press release, the union is strongly opposed to the use of this instrument, the findings of which are not generally admissible and acceptable in courts of law, as a means of determining the innocence or otherwise of persons who (are required) to submit to it.It is in this context, the release added, that GPSU is appalled at the arbitrary and discriminatory manner in which polygraph his been used in not only dismissing persons previously employed in the Public Service,China Adidas Hockey Jerseys, but at the failure to subject their replacements, for whatever reasons, to similar tests.“It is our advice that persons who are victims of this atrocity should seek redress through the judicial system.” Last month, several employees, including the Head of the Customs Anti-Narcotics Unit (CANU), were sacked for failing polygraph tests.The terminations of the CANU employees will be a first time that polygraph would have been used in Guyana and someone who has failed is facing unemployment.There have been criticisms that the use of polygraph cannot be the sole basis in determining whether or not to fire an employee. A polygraph (commonly referred to as a lie detector) is an instrument that measures and records several physiological responses, including blood pressure, pulse, respiration and skin conductivity, while the subject is asked and answers a series of questions. Polygraph testing works on the basis that false answers will produce distinctive measurements.The use of polygraph tests is becoming a standard part of the developing technology used by law enforcement agencies, including in hotspots like the US and Colombia.Guyana, the President had warned in an earlier press conference, will be using the technology more and more to weed out the bad eggs. |
