196 workers declared a strike at Quebecor World Peru. It began yesterday and ends today April 30. They demanded a fair distribution of profits which the company historically paid workers when they were not unionized. Additionally, they manifested that there are deficiencies at the plant which bring about huge losses in production through errors committed by company and that they feel mistreated by Quebecor’s top management. The company responded to these demands by the workers with police intimidation as well as filming and black lists. A threatening memorandum was circulated among the hired workers that entered the plant, which could imply a lack of respect for one of the clauses in the Global Agreement. The Regional Director of UNI Graphical Americas and Brother Juan Palma from CONAGRA, Chile are with the colleagues to analyze the developments.
