Landmark case against G1 Group

Described as a "landmark legal case", a group of eight staff, who had been working at Grosvenor Cafe on Ashton Lane, have launched a legal battle against Scotland's largest hospitality employers, G1 Group, over their "wrongful and unfair dismissal". A protest broke out after the company sacked 10 workers for allegedly misusing staff discount codes. Thompsons Solicitors, who will be prosecuting the case, will argue that the Unite the Union members were refused representation from their trade union, denied contractual notice pay and unfairly dismissed after being sacked "en masse".
