Please do not contact me again, I am not looking for a job The purpose of going onto your site was to warn people of the most awful of employers being The Scottish Prison Service (SPS) I was promised a full removal package if I moved 200 miles to work at a different prison. They lied, leaving me abandoned 200 miles from home with no money to move back. When starting work for the SPS I was promised S.J.I.B. rates for a FULLY qualified plumber. They lied, I was on a much reduced salary. They promised to continue my (gas) C.O.R.G.I registration acquired before joining the sps. They lied My C.O.R.G.I registration was allowed to expire. I was told I could do a fork lift truck licence instead. note, the prison I worked at did not have a fork lift truck, the licence was of no use. Their complaints procedure involved complaining about bullying to the first line manager, the very person who took delight in being a bully knowing full well that the SPS had crown immunity from prosecution.I could write a book about the atrocities but that said I mearly want to warn people about this most dreadful of employers
