Workers in the wagon industry in Arak, Iran, go on strike to save jobs

On 5th October 2018, over 150 workers of Arak’s Wagon Reconstruction industry went on strike as the corporation is being handed over to the private sector and the danger of losing their jobs looms over the workers.

On the third day of their strike, the workers called for an immediate stop of the privatisation process of their industry and demanded more job security.

Usually, once a workplace is privatised, the workers’ contracts are not renewed or are being cancelled, and the workers are left without jobs or any security. In some cases the workers don’t even get paid for months of delayed wages.
