RTE bosses have continued to keep their main canteen closed after it became plagued with rats and mice.
Earlier this month, bosses at the national broadcaster sent an email to staff advising them of eatery alternatives after the main canteen was shut down because of a rodent infestation caused by building works around the Donnybrook campus. A health and safety inspector had previously been out to assess the building.
Three weeks later, some of RTE’s brightest talent and staff continue to eat elsewhere as the main canteen remains closed. A spokesman for RTE said: “RTE communicated to staff on Friday, January 20 as follows: ‘The main restaurant on our Donnybrook campus will remain closed next week as a precaution and to allow for ongoing monitoring of the area'.”
