Victory against Corrupt “Charro” Union
The National Union of General Tire Workers in Mexico (SNTGTM) recently defeated a corrupt “charro” union by total of 640 votes against 1 in the latest union election on August 6, 2010. In addition the independent union also fought against the General Tire plant for illegally terminating 52 workers, thus far half of them have be reinstalled in the plant due to the efforts of the union.
Enlace is working with General Tire and Tornel Independent Unions on a campaign to defend the national contract and working standards in the rubber industry.
Workers in the Rubber Industry in Mexico
Enlace is working with Sindicato Nacional de Trabajadores de Compañía Hulera Tornel and key ally Sindicato Nacional de Trabajadores de General Tire in a campaign to defend labor standards for thousands of workers in the rubber industry. Both unions represent workers at tire plants in Mexico and are currently organizing to reinstate workers illegally fired while fighting off corrupt company (charro) unions that threaten their rights and lower their wages. The Tornel Tire Company belongs to JK Organization, a huge multinational based in India, and the General Tire Company belongs to Continental based in Germany.
