NCRI – Hundreds of workers from the Miral Glass factory (located in the Tehran-Saveh road near Tehran) protested 10 months unpaid wages by staging a demonstration at the company’s factory site and setting automobile tires on fire, closing down the Tehran-Saveh road. Workers at the factory, with 5 to 25 years employment record there, have not been paid in the past 10 months. Despite promises by the authorities in Iran to redress the situation, no wages have been paid and salary checks issued by the company for part of the workers wages have bounced and salaries remain unpaid.
Workers at the demonstration today shouted slogans condemning the theocratic regime’s foreign aid to other countries (Iranian regime’s interference in neighboring states) and called for their own problems to be resolved instead. The clerical regime dispatched repressive security forces to the scene in an attempt to clamp down on the protest.
The Iranian Resistance hailed the workers protest action at the Miral Glass factory and appealed to international labor bodies and labor unions to condemn the Iranian regime’s anti-labor policies. The Iranian Resistance also called on the International Labor Organization to review the situation of Iranian workers in its next conference in Geneva.
