Alleged Union-Buster Expands in South By Marty Logan, IPS
Dogged by allegations that it persecutes its workers who back labour unions in Canada and overseas, one of North America's largest shirt-makers is set to expand its Latin American and Caribbean workforce by 50 percent by 2008.
Montreal-based Gildan Activewear unveiled the plans at its annual shareholders meeting Wednesday, just days after agreeing to an independent audit of a Honduras plant where labour activists say more than 100 workers have been fired for unionising activities.
