Union claims guide-dog ban risks job

Unions claim that a blind factory employee may have to quit his job in order
to keep his guide dog.

Peter White’s union, the GMB, claims Essex-based perfume company,
Beautimatic, banned Chips the labrador retriever from the factory floor,
stating that dog hair may contaminate the product. Beautimatic, the unions and
White are currently trying to work out a compromise.
