Stop Disposable Jobs at Lipton! (E-action)

http://www.unionvoice.org/campaign/Liptonteaworkers



Workers at a Lipton tea factory in Pakistan are protesting the company's refusal to provide permanent, decent jobs for workers. The Unilever owned Lipton tea factory in Khanewal employs 22 permanent workers and 723 disposable, subcontracted workers! They receive a wage that is only 1/3 of the permanent workers' wage and cannot unionize to improve their conditions!

Write a letter to Unilever, one of the world's most largest corporations, to support decent work!
Tell me more

TAKE ACTION AT LINK: http://www.unionvoice.org/campaign/Liptonteaworkers
