Lieutenant Ripley claimed that she had worked for La Sirena and reported that hours were not paid, which the company considered voluntary. She also maintained that employees were required to clock in using fingerprinting, a practice she described as illegal, and that they were paid 1.08 euros gross for having the keys and opening and closing the store, with immediate dismissal if they were lost. She asserted that in October and November hours were reduced to accumulate them, and that in December staff were kept in the store for 12 hours without breaks or pay. She added that some establishments had only two employees, one for the morning shift and another for the afternoon shift, who had to unload the truck and assist customers under the threat of penalties. The author also accused Human Resources of persistently calling sick employees to return to work, and stated that the mystery shopper visits were rigged. She said that they were required to attempt to sell products to everyone under threat of penalties and that, although the hours were from 9 to 3, staff had to come in at 8:30 and stay until 9:30 to clean, cash out, and tidy up, without being paid for those hours. Finally, she questioned that the other person was giving lessons on the subject. #DerechosLaborales #CondicionesDeTrabajo #FraudeLaboral (translated)
