The main contractor was not aware of the company. This led to that Atlanco Rimec lost his job at Metro construction.

Stop cheating has taken note of the requirements of the letters. This worker is required on nearly 2,000 euros. According to the letter it says that there has been an undue payment and that the money must return – within seven days. Otherwise Atlanco Rimec drag worker in court.

Five people
The union 3F contact with five workers who received a claim letter. A representative from 3F says that the union will “do what it takes” to help the workers. First, the trade union will have a negotiation with the company since it  still is a member of employers’ organization Dansk Byggeri.
