Westminster City Council said the worker became trapped in the walk-in commercial freezer, which typically has its temperature set at -18C.
Pret A Manger has been fined £800,000 after one of its workers was left fearing for her life while stuck in one of its freezers.
Dressed in just jeans and a t-shirt, she had tried to keep warm by moving around but soon began to feel unwell. After she was rescued, an investigation found there was no suitable risk assessment for employees working in temperature-controlled environments. “Westminster City Council will continue to work with businesses to make sure the highest levels of health and safety are consistently maintained and educate staff in safe practice.”
