Trade union Unite criticised the campaign launched today, with its industrial organiser for the hospitality sector Bryan Simpson, branding it one of the worst employers in the industry.
He said “the treatment of workers in Qatar is an international scandal but BrewDog have a cheek saying anything about workers rights when hundreds of their own workers (past and present) signed an open letter detailing a “
culture of fear” with workers demanding an apology for “harassing, assaulting, belittling, insulting or gaslighting them”.
“This horrendous treatment was further reinforced by the much cited BBC Disclosure – The Truth About Brewdog in which corroborated a “
toxic and misogynistic work culture” across the organisation.”
“This is yet another disingenuous advertising campaign designed to distract customers from the fact that BrewDog is one of the worst employers in the brewing industry when it comes to doing the right thing thing by workers”
