Ultimatum from MB BOD....just now on WHDH news

Wednesday afternoon the two Market Basket CEOs issued a statement regarding employees who have been protesting the firing of former CEO Arthur T. Demoulas.

In the statement the CEOs issue an ultimatum for employees who have walked off the job.

"We want Market Basket associates back to work and reiterate that they can return without fear of penalty. We again acknowledge and understand how difficult this situation has been for associates. However, we also need to have associates working to support stores, customers and vendors. We need associates to return to work on Monday August 4th. We understand that some associates may choose not to return, consequently we will begin advertising for employment opportunities. Our hope and strong preference is to have Market Basket's incredible associates return to work. Again, any associate that wants to return will be welcomed and not penalized."
