Wroclaw: LG Kills

On Nov. 23, ZSP held a picket in Warsaw at the Agency for the Development of Indusry about the death of a 26 year old worker at HI Logistics, part of LG Electronics at the factory in the Special Economic Zone in Biskupice Podgorne, near Wroclaw. The comrades pointed out that the worker was crushed while operating a forklift, which he had no license or training to use and that such work was not covered in his work contract. He was working at the factory through a temporary work agency.

ZSP demanded that the Agency, which oversees the zone, take responsibility for what is going on there.

People can send protest mails to the temporary agency, Max Power, or to LG, which owns HI Logistics.
