Not strictly a Finsec event, but here's a few photos of the Service and Food Workers' Union Nga Ringa Tota rally in Wellington on International Cleaners Day.
The 'Fair Deal for Cleaners' campaign that this rally is part of aims to provide a voice to the low-waged largely immigrant female workforce, in cities across Australia and New Zealand, who are calling on big property owners to support decency in their workplaces.
The day time temperatures in Bahrain can reach as high as 50 Deg. Celcius. A recent law/decree was passed by the Bahraini government to protect the health of these workers who start duty as early as 7am. The decree states that all construction activity should be suspended between 1pm to 4pm. Though the last date of implementation of the law was the 31st August, the temperatures haven't lowered.
Stiff resistance to compliance of the law/decree has been from the construction companies that employ these workers, their claim is that it affects productivity and they are incurring losses.

An anonymous worker testifies to the fear and intimidation organized workers face on the job at a hearing organized by the Milwaukee County Labor Council. The screen was used to protect the identities of workers who were concerned that speaking out could cost them their jobs. This worker was a pilot who told a story about a lifetime pilot for the "hometown" airline who experienced a hostile atmosphere for organizing. The pilot was eventually fired, but thanks to a fight by the pilot's union he was able to get his job back and is still flying today.

Farm workers face safety, health, and environmental risks. Agriculture is among the most hazardous sectors for workers of all ages, due to the nature of work and frequent lack of job training for the high number of low-skilled, seasonal and migrant workers.
