Roberts Bakery Workers Left Unpaid
Dozens of Roberts Bakery workers have lost their redundancy packages and earned pay after the firm was bought and renamed by a billionaire food magnate.
In July, 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 others expected to have jobs until Friday, December 12.
No official statement has been released regarding the unpaid workers.
