HOPE not apply total capital of 3 factories in Haiti even when it has many limitations for workers under union organization 3 According to a U.S. report on the application of Hope has 3 factories that violate these points yo1) Breach freedom to form associations in factories, 2) Discrimination of women workers are subjected tlc online to questions of sexual harassment or sexual tizonaj factories; and 3) the work force, particularly in the form of forced workers do overtime without paying them accordingly
Press conference 3 ORGANIZATIONS union sector textile 4 July 2012 in Port-au-Prince will greet and thank all the journalists, our friends in the press talking, writing and televised press conference that covers this. The 3 union organizations, National Centrale des open Haitiens (CNOHA), Confederation des Forces Ouvrieres Haitiennes (CFOH) and Inter-Union May First Battle Laborer (ESPM-BO) inviting us to inform the population overall and workers / workers currently working factories on annual reports USTR, thereby Office International Trade U.S. and other instances of U.S. state published on implementing the Hope II / Help in Haiti.
1) On HOPE: As we know, HOPE, the U.S. Congress passed a law since 2006. In 2008, U.S. Congressional rekondyi to September 2013. But after tanbleman of January 12, 2010, HOPE gets called HELP (Haiti Economic Lift Program) and will last until 2020. Law Hope2/Help this category entering agreements or program tlc online preferences between Haiti and the United States. But there are two requirements of Hope / Help requires state and Haitian factories soutretans them. Factories must operate in compliance with the 8 ILO fundamental conventions and codes work of Haiti. To verify compliance with or not, there is a program under the supervision and control of ILO called Better Work (BW) will make observations, assessment of compliance as part of their so-called program TAICNAR (which means technical assistance program to strengthen assess whether firms comply with international standards and labor legislation in the country that is part HOPE same. 4 BW published evaluation report already.
But every year, in June as U.S. International Trade Representative Office (USTR / United States Trade Representative) must report on how law Hope / Help in building / land to implement the U.S. president can decide whether trade agreements Act Hope2/Help is made up can continue to apply in Haiti. Thus, a ratio that has a great importance for the future of commercial intercourse with the United States on Haiti export textiles. A statement that if the clothes are not eligible to benefit from the advantages HOPE provided.
2) What the report says? Report on progress made in implementing the remaining technical assistance Better Work program will manage to improve factory registered for benefit from HOPE. And remains on the Haitian government to make efforts to adhere to the requirements of HOPE. The report remains on Commission initiatives Hope (CTMO / Hope) begins to address the implementation of fault law in Haiti. Also technical support and remains on the U.S. government to the government to strengthen Haiti's ability to application or achievements that HOPE asked whether providing training, consulting and managed the Better Work, the visits made to strip and put factories, commission Hope, desks mediators work with representatives of companies are making clothes in Haiti, etc.. But what is important for us is that the report identified 3 major problems tlc online / violations responsible factories guilty. They are: 1) Violation of the freedom to form associations factories, 2) Discrimination of women workers are subjected to questions of sexual harassment or sexual tizonaj factories; and 3) the work force, particularly in the form of forced workers do overtime without they do not pay them accordingly. And in contrast with point 3 factories not in compliance with these aspects. Manufacturing tlc online these are SISA (Sewing International SA, IW (Inter-American Wovens SA) and hockey is (One World Apparel). WA 3 factories that are now, in a surveillance to stop violating international standards on freedom of association, forced labor forms of sexual harassment and discrimination on workers are subjected. report also says they had them aware, 3 factories that they say they will put the action plan for education services situation, to come into compliance. Basically this is the report stay on it.
3) Position 3 organizations working in the military sector textile on the report: For us 3 union organizations who struggle in textile sector for changing working conditions factory workers and improve their living conditions, we say we take this bill of the report said. But we think there are significant aspects of the report by the inhabitants of our fundamentals. Reports out of 3 violations as two objects isolated. They do not see them as two aspects of a generalized system of exploitation of factory workers tlc online are facing tlc online in the country. 3 violations remain on their importance, is true. But they do not stay on the global system of exploitation that produce these 3 problems. Employers violate ILO standards on freedom of association, is to open
