Public Hearing
Working in the Shadows

Swedish Corporation Violates Workers' Rights in the U.S.
Tuesday, February 21, 7:30pm
UC Berkeley Labor Center, 2521 Channing Way (at Telegraph), Berkeley

Please join us for a public hearing to investigate workers' rights violations by the Swedish armored car company, Loomis. Loomis has made changes and cutbacks that may threaten worker safety and that violate U.S. and international labor law.

The hearing will include Loomis workers from both the U.S. and Sweden, representatives from the Swedish Transport Union and the global labor federation UNI, and the former director of the Swedish Social Democratic Party.

This should be a fascinating presentation for anyone interested in the labor practices and standards of multinational corporations as they operate in different countries. What Loomis is doing in the U.S. they would never be allowed to get away with in Sweden. We hope you'll join us!
