Roberts Bakery Workers Left Unpaid
Dozens of Roberts Bakery workers have lost their redundancy packages and pay already earned after the firm was bought and renamed by a billionaire food magnate.
In July, the struggling Frank Roberts & Sons, the bakery's parent firm, announced 250 workers were entering a compulsory redundancy consultation period. 86 workers were deemed surplus to requirements, and their contractual notice periods were enacted.
- Notice periods varied depending on the length of time worked for the 138-year-old company.
- Some workers were expecting to finish next week, while many expected to still have jobs until Friday, December 12.
Workers feel "shafted" after the rescue deal.
