Grinch of the Year: Wal-Mart aflcio.org
Retailing giant Wal-Mart won the 2004 Grinch of the Year award, an annual contest to highlight the corporation that most harms workers and their families sponsored by Jobs with Justice. Runners up include Comcast, Angelica Corp., Continental General Tire and Cintas.
More than 60 percent of the more than 2,300 votes cast in this year’s online poll went to Wal-Mart, according to Jobs with Justice, which announced the results on Dec. 22. “The overwhelming vote to name Wal-Mart Grinch of the Year reflects the growing concern that working families have with this mega-corporation,” says Fred Azcarate, executive director of Jobs with Justice, a coalition of union, community, religious and student groups.------------------------------------------- posted 10:53 AM :: reference link ::
