We stand in solidarity with garment workers around the world to demand that global brands take immediate action to stop union busting in their supplier factories. 

Today, the Clean Clothes Campaign (CCC) global network, in which MSN is an active member, is supporting IndustriALL Global Union’s call for a Global Day of Action against union busting in the garment industry. The Covid-19 pandemic has provided management at garment factories around the world with an excuse to dismiss union leaders and members and close unionized factories.

This win follows a three and a half months long struggle sparked in early April by the dismissal of 324 workers, of which 298 were union members.
