Mash Direct: Northern Ireland food company accused of denying rights to employees![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Mash Direct: Northern Ireland food company that hosted Prime Minister accused of denying rights to employees. Independent Workers Union, who is leading a protest action at Newtownards shopping centre at 12 noon, Wednesday 9 June, has sought on several occasions to meet with management on behalf of members in the factory after receiving reports of ongoing violations of their rights. Furthermore, refusal to provide staff with a written statement of their terms and conditions of work, refusal to permit staff to take a grievance through the formal procedure, and refusal of their right to be represented by a trade union amounts to breaking the law, and is a bigger scandal given the profile of the company last week and awards given to the company in recent times. |
