Another call from Labour Start, for solidarity:
Ten union leaders - eight of them women - have been fired because they dared to organize.
They work for Euro S.A. in Ica, Peru, a profitable agricultural export plantation. Euro S.A. is owned by Agricola Athos, which operates in five different regions in Peru and supplies produce to countries in Europe, Asia, and North America. The firings of these workers is part of a pattern of union-busting in Peru.
We've been asked by the Confederación General de Trabajadores del Perú (CGTP), the largest national trade union center in the country, help get these workers their jobs back and to get their union recognized.
Please take a moment to send off your message - click here:
And please spread the word in your union.
In brief ...
Last week we announced preliminary results of the Second Annual Survey of Trade Union Use of the Net -- results which we'd like to share with you and your union. I think we learned some interesting things which will help us as trade unionists make better use of the new technology.
