	Description:		New World is denying allegations it's passing over workers who lost their jobs after a fire destroyed a flagship store in supermarket. 189 people employed at the Victoria Park supermarket get their last pay cheque on Monday. Foodstuffs said it was optimistic about finding jobs for the workers at a new store in Point Chevalier but Workers First Union said that of the 80 positions on offer at the new store only half are being filled with staff from Victoria Park. It's also raised concerns about older and disabled workers missing out on positions. Organiser with Workers First Union, Jas Giri spoke to Lisa Owen.
