Yum seeks justice from Labour Court
Yum Restaurant International (Thailand) will bring a labour case to the Labour Court, following the Labour Relations Committee's resolution that it must take back three dismissed employees.
In a statement, Yum, which runs the KFC and Pizza Hut chains in Thailand, said for next step, the company is considering taking this case to lawsuit in seeking for just judgment which will be accepted at the international standard.
It also thanked the Labour Relations Committee for attempting to find a solution to on termination of the employees who violate the company’s regulations/code of conduct.
"It is difficult decision to let go our long-time, valuable staff –though with compensation, but it is unavoidable since the company honours law, regulations and code of conduct and expects our staff to do the same in order to keep us at the international standard and maintain compliance. Nevertheless, as law-abiding organisation, the company will honour the committee’s decision to take back the 3 employees, until decisions come out otherwise."
