Title: Conditions of Work, 1938 [Go to resource]
Description: Huntley & Palmers employees had to follow firm rules and regulations. The company was concerned about the image that it presented to the wider population of Reading. Good timekeeping was strictly enforced although employees were allowed three minutes grace on arrival at work. The rule book states that 'This concession is granted solely in order that employees who are inside the factory gates at their proper starting times may not be penalised in consequence of the fact that their clocking stations are at a distance from the entrance gates.'
