Protesters March around NPC Inc. Demanding Reinstatement of Union Members

Union G.K.I. organized a demonstration on Oct. 2 against NPC Nihon Insatsu (NPC Inc.)  demanding that the company follow the order by the Tokyo Metropolitan Labor Commission and reinstate union members who were dismissed unlawfully. Some 90 protesters including members and supporters of the union marched around NPC's main office in Tokyo and to its bank, Misui Sumitomo. Some temporary workers in NPC organized a union for themselves to have the company correct the unlawful treatments of them. They gained direct employment with contracts of one-year term and subsequently demanded more favorable contracts including regular employment without terms. NPC however rejected the workers' demands and retaliated with refusals of collective bargaining, suspension of union members from working and eventually dismissals. (By SATO Kazuyuki)
