Drivers at Maen Karne held a demonstration in Truro this week to highlight the appalling treatment they have received from their employer.
The company, owned by @GRSwegobeyond, continue to ignore the concerns of its workforce.

Unite paid a visit to the London construction awards last week to highlight GRS’s disregard for the wellbeing of their workers. Further action is scheduled this week and will continue to escalate until GRS acknowledge the rightful concerns of its workforce. 2/2
