Le Grill staff challenge SBM over dismissal after alcohol probe
By Zak Jackson, MonacoViews Editorial
Eleven dismissed employees of Le Grill at the Hôtel de Paris are disputing their sackings, arguing Société des Bains de Mer imposed disproportionate sanctions.
Eleven former staff members of Le Grill, the Michelin-starred rooftop restaurant at the Hôtel de Paris, are contesting the circumstances of their dismissal from Société des Bains de Mer. The group argues the sanctions imposed were disproportionate and that they were treated unfairly during the process.
The dismissals followed an internal SBM investigation into alcohol consumption during working hours at the restaurant, a probe that led to disciplinary proceedings against those involved. The case is being closely watched in Monaco's hospitality sector, given SBM's position as the Principality's largest private employer and the prominence of Le Grill within its portfolio of Michelin-recognised establishments.
