Click here to send a message to Mondelez Ahmad Abdulghani Awad Abdulghani, 26 years old, worked at Cadbury Egypt, now a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mondelez, from 2008 to December 2011. He never had a permanent job, but was part of the army of precarious workers making chewing gum at the Alexandria factory. He lost half his thumb while operating a machine which should normally be run by three persons. Then he lost his job. This is the same factory management that sacked 5 union leaders in June 2012 following a spontaneous protest over the company's refusal to pay a government-mandated private-sector pay rise. This is the same company whose management in Tunisia has dismissed and suspended union leaders and denies responsibility for these abuses. This is the company whose corporate management refuses to respond to communications to the IUF, the international union that represents these workers. The IUF has therefore filed a formal complaint for violations of international human rights standards with the relevant US government agency - and has launched a GLOBAL CAMPAIGN in defense of its members at Mondelez in Egypt and Tunisia. To learn about the campaign go to http://iuf.us6.list-manage2.com/track/click?u=e788a43ccacc225abf8e6e748&id=775eaa70bd&e=2d1677c4a8 – there you can learn more and download campaign materials for distribution to union members at Mondelez. Click here to send a message to Mondelez - tell them to make time to rectify human rights abuses and to meet with the IUF NOW!
