"You're Fired!" with a twist

A new reality show from the creator of ‘Big Brother’ will allow staff at companies struggling in the recession to choose which colleague should be fired.

In each episode of ‘Someone’s Gotta Go’, developed by production company Endemol, workers at a struggling business will choose who should get a salary cut or raise and who should be fired based on information about pay and past performance.

“It will be an interesting experiment to reverse the power roles,” said a spokesman for Endemol.

Endemol has sold the format to Fox Television in the United States and hopes to broadcast it in other countries, according to Reuters.
