A breach of protocols during Covid-19 lockdown has left staff members at Mataura's Alliance meatworks plant in hot water.
An Alliance Group spokesman confirmed last week that the company was working through an "employment matter".
"The health and wellbeing of our people is paramount and the co-operative put in place
significant measures over the lockdown to prevent the spread of Covid-19 and keep our employees safe.
"We are currently working through an internal employment matter involving an alleged breach of Covid-19 restrictions during the lockdown.
"This is an ongoing process and it would be inappropriate to comment further at this time."
