The owners of Brothers Classic Grill and Pizza, a Weyburn, Sask., restaurant at the centre of controversy over its use of the Temporary Foreign Worker Program, say recent staffing changes were related to the "restructuring" of their hours of operation.

In a statement released Wednesday, the owners — who describe themselves as a family-owned business — said they informed their staff of the changes earlier this year and some employees accepted the changes to their schedules while others did not.

Last week two former longtime waitresses — Sandy Nelson and Shaunna Jennison-Yung — told the CBC News iTeam that they believed they had lost their jobs to workers hired under the TFW program. The pair were given termination letters in early March from the restaurant owners.
