National Youth Assembly 2010 for Jobs for Decent Living and Working attracted about 5,200 young people from around the country to Meiji Park, Tokyo, making a great success. Young workers fighting lawsuits through solidarity with fellow members of labor unions after the termination of their employment as dispatched workers said, "During the past one and a half years, the actual conditions of dispatched workers under the Worker Dispatch Law have been uncovered and the situation is drastically moving ahead toward the revision of the Law. Now is the time for dispatched workers to take action for a change." The closing speech at the rally concluded by pointing out that the rally was a start of a new struggle, rather than the goal. 5,200 young participants started Meiji Park for an appeal walk through Harajuku and Omotesando.

まともに生活できる仕事を！～5200人の若者がアピールウォーク
まともに生活できる仕事を！人間らしく働きたい全国青年大集会2010は、全国各地から5200人の若者が東京・明治公園に集まり大きく成功をしました。派遣切りをされたけれども労働組合やユニオンの仲間とつながることによって、裁判を闘う若者たちはこう発言しました。「この１年半で労働者派遣法の実態が明らかになり、改正に向けて大きく動き出している、今度は派遣労働者が動いて変えていく時だ」と。集会の閉会あいさつでは、この集会はゴールではなく、新たなたたかいへのスタートであると締めくくられ、5200人の若者は明治公園から原宿、表参道をアピールウォークしました。（首都圏青年ユニオン・山田真吾）・動画（UnionTube）

Therefore, through desperation the family hired a lawyer to settle the matter. Alicia Paulino Grisham, the family’s lawyer commented: “7-Eleven abandoned the Faruque family, and they disregarded the wishes of their employee. The reason that she was paying for coverage was because she wanted to protect them and they didn't care.”
According to Sandy Praeger, former president of the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, third-party insurance providers have little incentive to care.
Praeger said that the federal Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA) safeguards companies like 7-Eleven from punitive damages: “Their only incentive would be wanting to keep good employees. They are insulated.”
