Global survey charts the spread of anti-union repression Workday Minnesota
BRUSSELS — Some 129 trade unionists were murdered around the world last year -- less than the previous year -- but still a grim reminder of the dangers faced by workers exercising their fundamental rights, the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions said.
The survey of trade union rights, published annually by the ICFTU, catalogues severe abuses of fundamental workers' rights in 2003. Painting a country-by-country account of trade union rights violations across the world, this year's survey covers 134 countries in total, highlighting assassinations, physical intimidation, arrests, death threats and dismissals for forming or joining trade unions, presenting collective demands or taking strike action.------------------------------------------- posted 6:45 AM :: reference link ::
