‘No dough, no pizza:’ Workers protest against Pizza Hut franchisee's alleged wage theft and intimidation
Unite members protest outside a Pizza Hut against the company's wage theft and intimidation across Scotland, Edinburgh, March 25, 2025

CHANTS of “no dough, no pizza” resounded through the streets of Edinburgh today as workers at Pizza Hut franchisee Glenshire Group accused it of wage theft and intimidation at its 23 takeaway outlets across Scotland.

About 200 cooks, cleaners and delivery drivers have launched a collective grievance amid what their union Unite branded a “systematic attack” on their pay and conditions since the conglomerate took on the franchises in 2022.

Unite have accused Glenshire Group of recently removing delivery commission to drivers — a move workers argue threatens to plunge pay below minimum wage after costs such as fuel and insurance.
