Earlier this month, 24 Filipino workers were sacked by NXP Semiconductors. These workers were all rank and file delegates who made up the executive of the NXP in-house union. They were involved in negotiations over wage increases and permanency status for workers. NXP is a global electronics company that operates in more than 25 countries and employs over 5,000 workers just in the Philippines. These sackings are a clear case of a global company engaging in the brutal ‘race to the bottom’ where workers’ wages and conditions are continually cut in a never ending quest for more profits. Monday the 26th of May is a global day of action against NXP.
