A significant portion of University of Kentucky dining and facilities workers laid off by Aramark have not been rehired by the new partner, Compass Group. By July 10, only 462 out of 926 affected employees had found new positions. Compass Group is reportedly prioritizing full-time hires, leaving many student and part-time workers in limbo. Additionally, UK employees who choose to remain with the university rather than join Compass Group will not be eligible for promotions. The university is still finalizing its contract with Compass Group, which began providing services in July.
