Between 10 and 12 December the police have reported over 120 cases of sharp metal pieces being found in jars of Janesons mincemeat. The police have evidence that the person responsible is an employee of Janesons. It is also known that: Janesons has rearranged its management structure and will be making 20 senior employees redundant in January. Ben Laidet was made redundant on 8 December for incompetent behaviour. Janesons closest rival, Bertsons, has been suffering from severe financial losses since Janesons installed new technology in the bottling process, which increased their output.
