Workers at a Copenhagen Carlsberg warehouse returned to work yesterday after striking over their right to drink beer on the job.
Workers were previously allowed to drink the produce while working, but Carlsberg has changed its policy, limiting the warehouse staff to one bottle of free beer a day, to be consumed while on their lunch break. The Associated Press reports that the brewery's drivers are still entitled to their three bottles a day.
UK employers struggling with the decision of whether or not to give their staff free booze while working may want to refer to XpertHR's model policy: Alcohol and substance abuse policy and procedure (subscription required).
