The struggle by 55 workers in Melbourne, against subcontracting and insecure work is now in its second month. The company, CUB, is part of the SAB Miller group, a global company that employs around 70,000 employees in more than 80 countries, and last year had a net revenue of USA $24 Billion. To effectively fight the power of global companies like SABMiller, workers need to step up and take co-ordinated industrial actions at many of their sites across the world. In Asia, SAB Miller has production facilities in Australia, India and New Zealand. You can support the striking workers at 22 Southampton Cres, Abbotsford and donate to their strike fund.
