    Yesterday, we escalated our #UnfairLaborPractice #strike by heading straight to York, Pennsylvania, home to #Starbucks’ biggest East Coast distribution center with a message: If Starbucks won’t meet us at the table, we’ll meet them at their supply chain. We'll keep escalating, or we'll bring the picket line to them.

  5. Note Capitalists are always keen to “reduce the cost of labour”

    “Wages at the #Dandenong site are lower than they were at Hume. When the new site opened in 2018, the basic hourly rate was $28, less than the $32 paid at Hume when it finally closed.”

  6. Panicha Kanyana and Anucha Chaipha were suspended from #YPCPrecision after their union #Thailand Autoparts and #MetalWorkers #Union (TAM) organized 400 workers in 2023. YPC transferred 38 unionists, refused them overtime. Trade unionists were threatened with temporary contracts and outsourced workers were brought in.
