One-man-strike at Nissan Oppama Plant



HIRATSUKA Ryoji, a member of a general workers union, Union Yokosuka, staged a 12 hour strike at Nissan Motors Oppama Plant on 16th March. Being the only union member in the plant, HIRATSUKA notified the supervisor and just walked out of the plant. But since it was the first one-man-strike at the plant, his action caused havoc; personnel management staff were observing all his actions from a distance.
The cause of the strike was the refusal of HIRATSUKA and the union to work overtime and  days off. He had taken a 3 years sick leave and had just returned to work by the order of his doctor. But the company ordered him to work overtime and on days-off to bully him. (Kojima Takeshi)

日産自動車追浜工場で一人だけのストライキ敢行

一人でも誰でも入れる労働組合・ユニオンヨコスカの組合員である平塚良治さんは、日産自動車追浜工場(神奈川県)で316日午後から12時間のストライキに突入した。もっとも職場では一人だけの組合員なので本人は職制にその旨を通告して、堂々と職場を離脱して帰途についただけであるが、工場にとっては初経験で大騒ぎだ。勤労課員たちが一見無視を装いつつ、遠巻きに平塚さんの全行動を見張っていた。ストの発端は平塚さんが3年間の私病休職(本来は労災にすべきもの)の満期が迫ったので主治医の指示で職場復帰を勝ち取った。それに対して会社が嫌がらせとも思える残業・休日労働が命じた。ユニオンと本人はそれを拒否したことから起った。(小嶋武志)
