ITF calls for action in support of UPS worker in Germany
15/01/2010
The ITF yesterday urged member unions to back a worker at UPS in Germany, who it is alleged, may have been discriminated against.
In the call to action the ITF urged affiliated unions to send protest letters to UPS managers to demand a solution to the case, which revolves around developments at UPS in Cologne, Germany, the company’s major European hub. Details were outlined in an article published by the ITF-affiliated union Ver.di; the union alleges the possibility of discrimination and racist behaviour against trade union activist Murat Sahin, who is Turkish. Since the article was published, it is understood that a mediation process has been taking place between managers and Sahin; Sahin has outlined a proposal relating to the composition of the mediation panel in order to progress the matter.
In a letter to Scott Davis, UPS chairman and chief executive officer, Ingo Marowsky, ITF global organising coordinator invites him to contact UPS managers to resolve the case. “All of us expect a clear message from the company that victimisation of, and discrimination and racist behaviour against trade union activists are all unacceptable actions and have no place in the UPS world,” he said.
