Long-term employees accuse oil giant BP of greed, exploitation and lying about their pensions.
Earlier this month BP’s attempts to curb compensation payouts to those impacted by its 2010 Gulf of Mexico disaster failed after its appeal was rejected by a US court.
Dozens of people and businesses that have claims against the oil giant have told Truthout they are infuriated at the company’s ongoing attempts to avoid payments, and they are not alone.
Several long-term senior BP employees are incensed at what they believe is BP’s attempt to short-change them on their pensions.
