Trade union Unite has accused drinks giant Diageo of withholding shares from its workforces across Scotland.Workers at the major Scottish employer are entitled to free shares, based on the company’s performance.The union said the efforts of the workforce to help the company through the Covid-19 pandemic should be recognised.Earlier this week, Diageo announced profits of £2.1 billion for the year ending June 30.But Diageo – which produces global brands such as Guinness, Johnnie Walker, Talisker and Smirnoff – said this 47% fall in profits meant the threshold for the free share distribution had not been met.Elaine Dougall, Unite regional coordinating officer, said the firm’s workers felt “utterly betrayed”.She said: “We recognise that like all company profits there has been a significant drop but other companies in the drinks industry such as Edrington and Chivas Regal have recognised the contribution of their workers by granting additional annual leave or through a financial award.“Let’s remember that Diageo still made a £2.1bn profit and it has paid out its share dividend, yet it refuses to reward the workforce who delivered this access to the company’s freeshare scheme.“Unite’s members at Diageo feel utterly betrayed by the company in light of their efforts to keep the business operating during the Covid-19 pandemic.”Despite the fall in profits, Diageo said on Tuesday that it will still pay the same final dividend as the previous year of 42.47p per share, delivering a full-year dividend of 69.88p per share – an increase of 2% against the previous year.The drinks giant is also investing more than £150m for malt distilleries and the conversion of Fraser’s department store on Edinburgh’s Princes Street into the Johnnie Walker visitor centre, which is now expected to be completed in the first half of next year.Diageo said its pay and benefits were among the best and most competitive for manufacturers in Scotland.A Diageo spokesman said: “We greatly appreciate the support of all our people during these challenging times.“The outbreak of Covid-19 has presented significant challenges for our business, impacting our full year performance.“As a result, the threshold for this year’s free shares award for UK employees has not been met.“Employees that elected to receive free shares in prior years and still hold them, will benefit from the final recommended dividend payment announced this week.“In addition to this, Scottish unionised employees received a pay increase from 1 July as per the 2019 Union agreement”.The UK Government spent more than £50,000 investigating BP after an oil leak – an amount seven times greater than the fine dished out to the company.An investigation into a “potentially disastrous” issue on one of BP’s UK offshore platforms is under way.Efforts to reduce the UK’s offshore decommissioning bill last year were “largely negated” by 5% of operators who increased their costs by £1billion, according to the Oil and Gas Authority (OGA).Houston oil field service company Halliburton landed a contract to add cloud computing technology that will improve production at  offshore rigs in Thailand.The boss of Wood expects more “turbulence” ahead for markets served by the global engineering and consultancy.A developer has submitted plans to the Scottish Government to expand one of the largest wind farms in Moray.The drive to ensure the UK oil and gas sector is taking collective action to stimulate its own recovery will be thrown into focus in an industry webinar later this week.BP has rejected accusations made by Greenpeace that an oil spill occurred at the Andrew platform in the UK North Sea.
