Belgium: No more alcohol during work day a new Inbev's corporate cafeteria, World Entertainment News Network posted on October 4. It may be the world's biggest brewer - and in beer-loving Belgium at that - but InBev does not want its managers drinking at lunchtime. Alcohol will no longer be served in the canteen when staff moves into a gleaming new headquarters this year.
InBev was formed in August (04) when Belgium's Interbrew merged with AmBev of Brazil, and lunchtime drinking is out of tune with the culture of the new, more international company, spokeswoman Marianne Amssoms said. Unions upset at the lack of consultation were told that the company bar would still serve beer after work. Employees at production sites will not be affected by the new policy.
