UNITED KINGDOM / AGILITYPR.NEWS / March 20, 2020 / Bryan Simpson of Unite Hospitality in response to G1 Group redundancies:

“We are hearing reports from our members across the G1group that they have closed most venues in Glasgow and are sacking staff en masse by message and without notice. We may be in the middle of a public health crisis but this does not give the country’s largest hospitality employer carte blanche to run rough-shod over their loyal workforce. The very fact that they only appear to be targeting those workers with less than 2 years service would suggest that they know exactly what they are doing and this is morally wrong and an absolute disgrace. Unite hospitality will be doing everything in our power to get justice for these workers who are now not going to be able to pay rent or bills during an acute crisis.”
