Sexual abuses and inhuman working conditions in Bleutar Manufacturing and Marketing Corp.

THE militant Kilusang Mayo uno (KMU) today urged the Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE), the Senate and House of Representatives to conduct separate investigations on alleged sexual abuses and inhuman working conditions suffered by female workers of the Bleustar Manufacturing and Marketing Corporation (BMMC).

After fourteen years of silent terror, around 200 women workers at the Bleustar Manufacturing and Marketing Corporation (BMMC) – a manufacturer of Advan branded footwear – found courage to make public the harrowing experiences they suffered from their Filipino-Chinese employer, Jimmy Ong.

Workers under the Kilusang Mayo Uno labor center were enraged today at the recent findings on the overpricing and excessive profiteering of big oil companies amidst the public’s suffering from price spikes.
