【ロイヤルブラック】英女王在位60年記念パレードで違法労働【時給340円】

A group of long-term unemployed jobseekers were bussed into London to work as unpaid stewards during the diamond
jubilee celebrations and told to sleep under London Bridge before working on the river pageant.
Up to 30 jobseekers and another 50 people on apprentice wages were taken to London by coach from Bristol, Bath and
Plymouth as part of the government's Work Programme.
Two jobseekers, who did not want to be identified in case they lost their benefits, said they had to camp under London
Bridge the night before the pageant. They told the Guardian they had to change into security gear in public, had no access
to toilets for 24 hours, and were taken to a swampy campsite outside London after working a 14-hour shift in the pouring
rain on the banks of the Thames on Sunday.
One young worker said she was on duty between London Bridge and Tower Bridge during the £12m river spectacle of a
1,000-boat flotilla and members of the Royal family sail by . She said that the security firm Close Protection UK, which won
a stewarding contract for the jubilee events, gave her a plastic see-through poncho and a high-visibility jacket for protection
against the rain.
Close Protection UK confirmed that it was using up to 30 unpaid staff and 50 apprentices, who were paid £2.80 an hour, for
the three-day event in London. A spokesman said the unpaid work was a trial for paid roles at the Olympics, which it had also
won a contract to staff. Unpaid staff were expected to work two days out of the three-day holiday.
