This is known as "managing out" and is effectively how managers get rid of unwanted staff who they can't easily fire (no poor performance or gross misconduct). It should be illegal but unfortunately it's very common practice.
In short, it's mistreating staff just inside of the "acceptable line" until they get fed up and quit.
