Malaysia: Stop union-busting at Apple supplier Lumileds
| In partnership with Electronics Industry Employees Union Northern Region EIEU Northern Region. |
Electronics workers in Malaysia, who build critical hardware for the global digital economy, are facing systematic union busting by major multinational suppliers. Workers at Lumileds, an LED screen manufacturer for Apple, voted overwhelmingly to unionize in November. Rather than recognizing the union and beginning to bargain in good faith, the company has systematically targeted workers, deporting migrant workers, many of whom have been there almost 10 years, firing one key union leader, Sukhairul Bin Khalid, and threatening another with discipline.
These attacks are blatant violations of international human rights standards and in direct violation of Apple's Code of Conduct. Join us in demanding that Lumileds and Apple reinstate all fired workers, renew contracts of migrant workers targeted for their union support, and immediately bargain in good faith with our union.
