That said, I still reckon an employee would have an excellent case at tribunal over this as it's a huge overreach to dictate precisely what food an employee can eatComment

Originally posted by vwdan View PostThey said that they're unable to expense meal claims that include meat. So de facto, yes - imagine a poorer employee going away on business. The choice is either be out of pocket for a meal they can't afford, or eat veggie.Comment

Although there was interesting comment along the lines of "if a person is gluten-free and the veggie option isn't viable then they have a decision to make". Seemed a bit ominous.
Essentially they're saying food on expenses will only be reimbursed if it's vegetarian (and I assume, by extension, vegan). It's up to the employee whether they want to pay for their own food when out on company business.Comment
