block progress


Explanation:
Something like block the employee´s progress or dictate a standard career.

It depends on whether employees are locked in a particular position, or whether their choices for progress are so limited that the career model is completely stereotyped.

Either way, obviously, they need freedom to develop...

Just my take on it :-)
