Bakery ordered to pay £20,000 to worker who urinated in mixing bowls

Court ruled company acted unlawfully in dismissing the woman after citing evidence gathered by surveillance camera in a staff changing area

A Barcelona bakery has been ordered to pay more than £20,000 to a worker who was fired after being caught urinating in mixing bowls.

Catalonia’s High Court ruled that Neucroissant had acted unlawfully when it dismissed the woman after citing evidence gathered by a surveillance camera in a changing area used by staff.

Footage captured by the CCTV had shown the woman, who has not been named, crouching down and urinating on several occasions into various containers used to produce the bakery’s goods.

Neucroissant said it had hired the services of a detective company to catch the worker out.

The firm verified how the woman had “squatted, [and] urinated inside a bowl” while at work, the bakery said.

It alleged she had thrown the contents of the bowl containing her urine into a sink, before rinsing it in water and “depositing it with the rest of the clean utensils that were later to be used in production tasks for the consumption of customers”.

The woman, who has not been named, received a dismissal letter while on sick leave in the summer of 2018, a decision she decided to challenge in the courts.

The court heard that the bakery, which made cakes and bread, did not have a designated changing room, meaning workers had to change in an area also used for production.

Under Spanish law, cameras cannot be installed in areas intended for employees’ rest and recreation, such as changing rooms, lavatories and dining rooms. Filming in such places constitutes an invasion of a person’s right to privacy.

She should have been executed for endangering the public. Predators on society need not be allowed to live.

I’ll bet the bakery guys never dreamed that they would get a “judge” who loves soggy biscuits and donuts.

Well, that is not very sanitary.

Did they also lack bath room facilities?

New Croissant in the french. In spanish apparently the worker was contributing not to croissants but to “bollo englis” (boyo enlAse- english muffin?).

If you are from Spain and you go to Barcelona, and you don’t speak Catalan, they won’t acknowledge your presence. But if you speak Spanish and they know you’re not from Spain, they’re ok with that.

All I can do is shake my head, it seems that all I do these days, well, there are times when I roll my eyes too. There are so many mentally ill people in this world and yet they run free with zero consequences. LQQK at the story of the mass murderer in Maine, guy spent time institutionalized and they let him out even though he said voices in his head were telling him to kill multiple people. We don’t have a gun problem we have a mental illness problem.

You can really shock them with a few Basque phrases- which uh.. would not do- they would freak out. The Spanish civil war was seriously vicious. Watched a movie, in spanish called “While at War” with all the principal people involved. Neighbor killing neighbor. What the Marxists are trying to foment in many countries for their global “plan” of self enrichment and banking 101.
