Anonymous writes "THE STUDENT discount promotional company Snapfax is still mistreating its staff, many of whom are undergraduates, despite being previously exposed by Student in November 2001.
The Edinburgh-based company, which publishes wallets of student discounts each year for cities nationwide, has been refused advertisement with the Student Employment Service (SES) since 2001 and has been repeatedly criticised by EUSA.
Student has learned that it has taken Snapfax several months to pay staff for work they did in the autumn, and some have still not received full payment although their employment finished last year.
Staff members employed during last autumn have also told Student of poor conditions in the makeshift factory where the discount wallets were produced, with no central heating turned on while they worked and one saying there was “filth everywhere.”
