10 Sep Defending Mondelez Jobs Globally

Trade union representatives from 18 unions, 13 countries, and 6 continents gathered in Brussels on September 5 and 6 to develop union action to protect their members’ futures at Mondelēz International. Defending trade union rights, combating job destruction and halting the growth of precarious work topped the meetings agenda.

BCTGM Strategic Campaign Coordinator Ron Baker and Assistant to the Strategic Campaign Coordinator Nate Zeff  represented the BCTGM International Union at the meetings.

The trade union representatives discussed ways to strengthen their international coordination and cooperation to defend the collective interests in a company that has been driven by aggressive cutting and permanent restructuring to reward large shareholders and top management. This business model has eliminated 16,000 workers’ jobs from Mondelēz worldwide since 2015.

This international meeting of IUF Mondelēz affiliates builds on two years of collective action by IUF affiliates to defend workers livelihoods and futures. The meeting concluded with strategic plans on how Mondelēz IUF affiliates will continue taking collective action to ensure workers’ interests are met and trade union rights are respected throughout the company.
