Yassamine Mather reports on action by workers at the Abadan oil refinery in Iran who have not been paid for months. Yassamine also writes about the Coordinating Committee to Form Workers’ Organisations and the Charter of the Fundamental Demands of the Working Class of Iran. Full text at link The refinery authorities associated with what remains of the state-owned Iran National Oil company say the workers are employed by a contractor and they cannot do anything about their demands. The protest followed a strike by the whole workforce of 450 involved in the development of Bandar Abbas Oil refinery. This was their third walkout in less than three months and the strike is continuing. The Iranian government’s privatisation plans are notoriously corrupt and generally help empower and enrich the Islamic Pasdaran (Revolutionary Guards). But in the oil industry it is different from elsewhere. Privatisation has been undertaken with the aim of dividing workers and hampering national negotiations over wages and conditions, in the knowledge that for oil workers deployed in various sectors of the industry, working for so many different contractors, it would be impossible to negotiate common terms and conditions. read full story / add a comment

We listened to a man who spoke about what our hearts had told us, but what the world around us had convinced us not to believe. read full story / add a comment
