Polish Food workers discuss organising, casualisation
02-06-2010
Food and beverage workers organised in Polish IUF-affiliate Solidarnosc discussed organising strategies May 26-28 in Lodz, Poland. Workers representatives from a number of TNCs and Polish owned companies including Frito-Lay (Pepsico), Coca-Cola, Bahlsen, Mars, Cadbury, and Odra developed communication and planning capacities to grow union strength.
In the discussions, the rampant casualisation of the workforce, in some cases up to 50% of the workforce, was identified as one of the main obstacles to building union strength and serious violation of workers right to organise.
Participants developed company-specific action plans which will be realised over the next months.
