A CLEANER was sacked after eating a leftover sandwich she found in a regulation agency's meeting room.
Gabriela Rodriguez, 39, helped herself to the Tesco tuna and cucumber sarnie from a platter.
But the single mum was fired from her £13-an-hour job with contractor Complete Clear for taking "shopper property . . . without authority or affordable excuse".
Her colleagues have demonstrated outdoors the central London HQ of solicitors Devonshires — the place prime legal professionals earn £1.68million a yr.
Elia Petros, of the UVW union helping her unfair dismissal declare, stated: "Cleaners are routinely dismissed on trivial and, we argue, discriminatory, grounds like this."
Complete Clear insisted it had complied with employment regulation.
As first reported on the Roll on Friday authorized news website, Devonshires stated it had not requested for Gabriela to be fired.
A spokesman stated: "Devonshires did not make a formal grievance towards Gabriela or ask for any motion to be taken towards her.
"Complete Clean carried out their own investigation and the choice to dismiss Gabriela was taken with none input or influence from Devonshires in any respect.
"This can be a personal matter between Complete Clear and Gabriela.
"However we have now made clear to Complete Clean that we might not object, as we by no means have accomplished, to Gabriela attending and dealing on our premises if Complete Clear modifications its place."
