SINTTIM & ENLACE WIN PUNG KOOK FIGHT!
A New Kind of Victory
Maquiladora workers in Baja California Sur recently wrestled a historic victory from Korean based Pung Kook. Enlace and SINTTIM succeeded in getting this transnational corporation to return to North America to settle up with the workers.
Working for less than the Mexican minimum wage, Pung Kook workers labored under sweatshop conditions making luggage and backpacks for Adidas, Land’s End and Patagonia. They were working to form an independent union in Baja California Sur, el Sindicato Independiente de Trabajadores y Trabajadoras de la Industria Maquiladora, SINTTIM.
This victory would not have been possible without the help of our supporters
Enlace extends heartfelt thanks to all of the supporters and allies who contributed to the Pung Kook campaign. Without your help this victory would not have been possible.
