Management at a Pretoria petrol station have vehemently denied allegations of abuse and racism by a group of employees.
Several Silverton petrol attendants have described to Eyewitness News how their employer Whitey Joubert allegedly abused them over many years.
They say the have had to endure public humiliation and private beatings at the garage for years
“He swears at me in front of customers,” one employee said.
Another said, “He slapped me. I went away and I cried. I didn’t fight him or anything.”
But workers said the alleged punching of a female co-worker last week was the final straw.
“He punched me in front of my colleague,” the alleged victim said.
Joubert denied the allegations but refused to give Eyewitness News a response on the record.
