Loch Fyne

Went to our local Loch Fyne Restaurant yesterday for lunch. Unfortunately their heating had packed up. However, they were not particularly bothered about the poor customers freezing. I would of left but Mrs sleazy was hungry along with our 3 year old daughter and there were no other places open. So, there we were, sitting in our winter coats eating our lunch. Got to say, crap customer service and I wouldn't return in a hurry. Even the serving staff were freezing in their company T shirts, apparently they were not allowed to put jumpers/coats on. Now, thinking back, I thought there was a certain temp that staff couldn't work in. I reckon someone will know on here.

last time i checked the company has to be of a certain size before minimum or maximum applies (plus what sort of work it is makes the exception)....in my place we freeze in winter with poor draught proofing and inadequate heating,.generally the building warms up by wednesday and for the rest of the staff they swelter in summer with crap ventilation and lots of machines to add to the heat..our angle in the building means it doesn't see the sun ..meh

Seems like 16C is the minimum for such a place:

Hope this helps

I used to work in a meat factory where the usual temp was 4 celcius but in some parts it was -22!!! Most of us wore just a t shirt under our overalls as the work was very physical.
