The situation for workers in Turkey is deteriorating with increasing pressure being applied against workers organising. Earlier this year we saw workers being fired at Trextra, an Apple supplier, for trying to organise a union. In the last few weeks airline workers have been attacked by both company and government, while workers at the textile factory of Hey Tekstil are still waiting for back wages. The Hey Tekstil workers are owed months of unpaid wages as well as severance pay when the company closed overnight and over 400 workers were dismissed. Click here for solidarity.
