Migration is a search for a better life. Thank you to all our panelists and brave workers for speaking out and shining a light on workplace exploitation. The people closer to the problem are closer to the solution. #covid #workersrights #peaceiv
A worker tells the @CrossingBBB Exploitation Seminar that safety measures introduced in the meat industry were introduced much too late and as a result Covid has turned his life upside down.

A worker supported by @CIPCommunity and @irishcongress tells our Exploitation Seminar he went to work at 6am, paid a taxi, but was sent home by a supervisor due to lack of work. Due to Zero Hour Contract he received no money. #seupb

Meat factories need to close for 14 days when workers have tested positive for #Covid19. Workers must be on full pay during this period. Government must act to ensure closure and employer responsibility so that workers and communities are protected.
Meat processing giant ABP has said that 22 members of staff at its plant in Cahir in Co Tipperary, along with 16 close contacts, have tested positive for Covid-19 rte.ie/news/coronavirus/2020…

What the Covid-19 outbreaks in meat factories across Ireland has shown is that when government and employers disregard workers’ rights, we all suffer as a result. Don’t miss MRCI's Director @edelmcginley speaking about the situation at 5.20pm @TodayFM
CIP retweeted
MRCI spoke to @LMFMradio this morning on #meat. The Dáil debate last night was deeply disappointing. No accountability by this govt/HSA/HSE for their lack of action in preventing or mitigating the impact of the now 16 meat factory clusters. @SIPTU @CrossingBBB
