The company "Nova Poshta" dismissed employees of one of its branches in Ivano-Frankivsk for cruel treatment of a dog. This was reported by UNN, citing the company’s press service.
Details
The reason was that employees of one of the branches decided to drive a dog out of the warehouse into the street, where the temperature was +38 degrees. They used a mop to do this.
A video showing the cruel treatment of the animal appeared online.
Warning, 18+ video!!!
The company stated that it does not tolerate cruelty or disrespectful treatment of animals.
What we saw in the video is completely contrary to our values. We are currently completing an internal investigation and have made the only possible decision — we are terminating our cooperation with these employees
The Nova Poshta team is also searching for the dog that suffered from the cruel treatment.
As soon as we find her, the company will immediately take the animal to a veterinary clinic in the village of Hlevakha. Nova Poshta will organize and pay for a comprehensive examination and, if necessary, treatment. We will обязательно inform you about the dog’s condition as soon as she is under the supervision of doctors
