Pharmacy chain under fire amid claims of unpaid staff and closures

STAFF at a struggling pharmacy chain say they are owed months of pay without explanation.

- 

There are more than 153 Jhoots pharmacies across the UK - including eight in Bristol - and many are reported to be battling crises including long-delayed wages, inadequate stock and unexplained closures.

One employee said: “Myself and other members of staff are waiting on two months of wages that the company keeps making false promises of when we will receive payment. We have just finished our 11th week out of operation due to no stock being delivered in eight weeks and no pharmacist for five weeks.”
