Australian workers in the car industry are not the only one fighting against pressures to work harder, longer and for less money. In India, the fight by the Maruti Suzuki workers continues with ongoing solidarity actions by other workers, while the company is increasing the pressure on its remaining workforce. In South Korea, workers at a General Motors plant held a mass stoppage over the issue of wages and conditions. The vehicle industry is globally integrated where rates and conditions are benchmarked globally. To fight, workers need to develop effective international organising strategies and tactics.
