Out-of-work Gourmet employees allege
unfair treatment by Lamb-Weston
H rp p n rr
(H e r 100 former employees o f
(iourm rt Brands met with state and
federal labor representatives
February 2
Thos who attended the meeting
told labor officials they felt they
were treated unfairly when I amb
Weston began rehiring former
(iourmet Brands employees to stall
the Boardrnan plant in mid January
I he former employees said they
were not given an adequate explana
tion why they were not rehired and
are w illing to fight the company to
get their jobs back
M urry Mac N e ill, senior in
vestigator for the Bureau of l-ahor
and Industries Civ il Bights Division.
Tony Kodrigue/ of the Tqu.il
Tmployment Opportunity Commis
sion (F T IK ’ I. and Al Roberts, a
union organizer with the Cmtcd
Food and Commercial Workers
union were invited to the meeting to
inform the group of their rights
under state and ledrral laws barring
discrimination
A representative from la m b
Weston was also invited but declin
ed to attend
The group said they were sent un
signed, undated form letters stating
that after reviewing their work
histories and qualifications. I amh
Weston was unable to otter them
employment
Dave Kelly, a spokesman lor
l-aiilb W eston said in a phone inter
view from his Portland office that
everyone is evaluated individually
and that information contained in
personnel files on work histories and
qualifications is among the’ informu
lion used in the tiles
Kelly denied allegations that
Iaimh Weston discriminated against
the former employees lor any reason
itK liutmg union acliv its work related
injuries, or grievances tiled against
(jo u r met
Kelly continued that he knew of no
pattern or policy that would be used
to exclude someone from cmplov
merit at I-units Weston He also said
he knew nothing about a torni letter
sent to those not rehired
Kelly said the same hiring prac
lices and policies were used at the
lioardnun plant that ire used at the
company s tive other processing
plants
Ihe former employees complain
ed to officials that thev were denied
access to their personnel files and
work histories those who sent the
company certified letters requesting
their Tiled did receive them, but
some allege th e ir file s were
incomplete
H rp p n rr. O rrn » n
IR, I W Î
Some members o f the group ac
cused the company o f not rehiring
them because they had past involve
menl with union organization at
tempts at (iourmet. had workers
compensation claims, or had filed a
grievance They stated they had no
indication or knowledge that com
pans officials or supervisors were
d issa tisfie d
w ith
th e ir
jo b
performance
Another main concern of the
group was that future job searches
would be frustrated because they
were not rehired when 1-amb
Weston purchased the company and
that they had been labeled
' undesirables " A sign posted at the
employment office said, in part, that
applicants must have no undesirable
work history at (iourmet Brands or
la m b Weston
Tarnera Brooks told the group she
had hern in contact with Joe
Ruse bed. personnel manager at the
plant She told him the group's con
cerns that they wree rxx treated fairly
during the hiring procevs Brooks
said he expressed concern to her
about any statement that they were
"undesirable" and that he had no
knowledge of a form teller being vent
to the applicants Brooks said she
was told all decisions were based on
attendance and work related infor
mat ion contained in personnel files
After listening to the group's con
ccms Rodriguez and Mac Neill said
they did nor know if the former
employees had a legal complaint, but
would talk to them individually to
determine if they had a basis for a
complaint
Ihe two men stressed to the group
that they were nor their advocates or
representatives, that their agencies
are neutral parties
