Fearful of strike and protests, Haft Tapeh bosses issue new contracts for protesting workers

On 10^th January 2019, workers of Haft Tapeh sugar cane factory in Khuzestan, Iran, protested again over unpaid wages.

The workers who protested on 8^th January were promised to get paid but the employers issued new contracts a day after to ensure that the workers don’t continue to protest and strike. The authorities are afraid that the strike will expand to other sectors and social protests.

Despite the new contracts, the workers held an assembly in front of the office of the board of directors and demanded payment of their unpaid wages.
