The contract of the expatriate staff of Mövenpick Ambassador Hotel who allegedly stole eight bars of gold from the room of a hotel guest has been terminated.
The action was as a result of a protest by the Ghanaian staff against what they said was racial discrimination by the management of the hotel.
According to the staff, management wanted to sweep the matter under the carpet.
They said some of their colleagues had been fired for petty crimes such as stealing pens while expatriate staff went unpunished when they stole from guests.
The protest was largely reported in the media pushing management of the hotel to set up a disciplinary committee.
The Industrial and Commercial Workers Union represented the Staff at the committee.
