In Montlhéry, the four employees of the Bonnat company found the door closed on their return from vacation, without having been warned. A situation which puts them in even more difficulty as they were not paid during the last two months of 2023.
The year 2024 is starting in the worst possible way for the employees of the Bonnat company, located in Montlhéry, in Essonne. When they showed up for the resumption of activities on Wednesday January 3, four of them were surprised to find the doors closed and the locks changed, without having been warned. Met by The Parisian, everyone says they are distraught and angry. For their part, the bosses show almost no signs of life.
According to the four employees, warning signs had alerted them to possible difficulties to come. First, explains the Ile-de-France daily, the company, specializing in floor and wall coverings, was in great difficulty, having only one construction site left, which pushed workers to carry out tasks on their own. company premises to take care of. Another clue discovered by surprise in October, the company was bought a month earlier, without its employees being informed. Finally, none of them were paid during the last two months of 2023. And if, as Agatha Christie wrote, three clues make a proof…
Expected compensation
Furthermore, emphasize The Parisian, the four colleagues had learned that two weeks of vacation had been granted to them, instead of the usual week. The amount of time needed, no doubt, for the bosses to change the locks and set sail. When trying to contact Mr. Ribeiro, the buyer, the employees once again hit a wall. No response, neither by telephone nor by email, and the declared address does not exist. For the moment, they have only had one offer from the Bonnat family, which offers the possibility of coming to collect their belongings, indicates the daily.
“These are irresponsible business leaders. These people are in complete disarray, some have children. We will try to assist them in their efforts, even if at the town hall level, we cannot do much “explained Claude Pons, the mayor of Montlhéry, to the Parisian. From now on, they will have to go through the industrial tribunal to obtain compensation. But, according to lawyer Blandine Alexandre, the procedure risks dragging on.
