Too high demands?
King Charles cancel gardeners
King Charles loses his gardeners. In the past three years, almost his entire team in his country seat is said to have terminated.
No gardener for King Charles III. (76) work? Referring to the “Sunday Times”, eleven out of twelve employees of the Gärtner team from HighGrove House in Gloucestershire have terminated in the past three years. Various factors should be responsible for this.
According to this, employees reported that they had difficulty lived up with the demands of the nature lover King Charles. He regularly gave them feedback on the garden by giving them handwritten notes with red ink and giving them positive and negative about the progress of its plants. Some members of the garden team found the comments to be rude and demoralizing.
“A lot of energy” put into the redesign of the gardens
The fact that the design of his country seat King Charles is particularly important is also evident from Highgmrove House: “Since 1980, when his Majesty the King arrived in Highmer for the first time, he put a lot of energy into the redesign of the gardens around the house, which is known as some of the most inspiring and innovative in the United Kingdom.” Under the direction of the King’s Foundation, High -Grove welcomes up to 40,000 visitors a year.
The employees also named the lack of personnel that is said to have caused a high level of workload, and the apparently low wages. A spokesman for the King’s Foundation stated in a statement that the gardeners are paid for by Highgrove under the usual sentence and emphasized that personnel fluctuation and complaints about employment are “far below the national average”. “We regularly check the guidelines of the Professional Gardeners Guild for salary benchmarking especially for the gardener team in Highgrove.”
“At the King’s Foundation, we take the well -being of our employees very seriously and strive to be an exemplary employer,” said the spokesman. “We are proud that we can regularly record very high satisfaction rates in our annual employee survey.”
