The short explanation of this alert was:

Workers in the Philippines are just like workers here in the U.S. who want a decent job so that they can provide for their families.  Just two weeks ago ILRF staffer Brian Campbell sat down with some unionized workers in the Philippines to learn more about recent change on a Dole plantation there. 

 

Unfortunately what we found out is that things have gotten worse for workers there and especially those workers that have chosen to be part of the independent union.  Even more shocking we learned that some of the workers that Brian met with may have been suspended or fired from their jobs within hours of meeting with him.

 

As ILRF has highlighted in our past two reports on the worst global corporations for recognizing the right of workers to organize, Dole has frequently violated freedom of association.  These latest incidents are part of a disturbing pattern of abuse.  It's time to tell Dole that this behavior is unacceptable and must end now.

 

Please join us in expressing your urgent solidarity with union leaders at Dole Philippines.
