UNITE has announced an Aberdeen demonstration against attacks on workers’ terms and conditions amid the “catastrophic mismanagement” at BrewDog.

In recent years the brewer has shut bars, ditched the Real Living Wage, and slashed contracted hours — and now workers face the possibility it may be sold.

Aberdeen-based BrewDog worker Dennis Ellis said: “Our hours have been cut from 32 hours to 24 hours a week, despite being on full-time contracts. That’s a loss of roughly £400 a month — during a cost-of-living crisis.

“This sale process — and the distinct lack of consultation from the company — simply deepens the insecurity.”

Arguing workers were being left to “pick up the pieces,” Unite Hospitality national lead Bryan Simpson said: “This is the collapse of a brand once sold to customers as anti-establishment, now being auctioned to the highest bidder.

“We demand clarity on job security and what protections will be put in place for workers and we will use every industrial and legal lever available to defend our members.”

The demonstration will take place on Wednesday at 6.45pm outside BrewDog bar on Aberdeen’s Union Square.

BrewDog was contacted for comment.
