NCRI – On Sunday, January 31, workers from the Alborz tire factory staged a protest gathering at the factory premises and set up bonfires. They protested against the lay off of 9 of their colleagues and demanded their unpaid salaries of five months of last year and two months of this year.
They also demanded the factory to pay for their insurance benefits and provide raw materials so the factory’s operations could be revived. In response to the regime’s officials who appeared on the scene to control the protest, the workers warned that unless their demands are fulfilled they will continue with their strike.
