The Issue

Dear Friends and Comrades,

We are calling for support from our international partners and friends for the call for Justice for the 11 Construction workers who fell in the worksite (from the 26th floor of the under construction Eton Residences high-rise condominium) last January 27, 2011. Ten (10) workers died on the spot, leaving one worker with serious physical injuries. Unfortunately, until now, the families have not received proper indemnification from the tragedy. The families have filed legal cases with regards to the violation of non-payment of minimum wages, employment of minor and reckless imprudence resulting to multiple homicide.

This June 23, we will be having a dialogue with Department of Justice Leila De Lima to ask for her support and urgent action on this case. We would like to ask for your support for the campaign and solicit signatures/ organization's support for the call for justice. The list of organization who will support will also be presented to Sec. De Lima.

Thank you and hoping for your solidarity!
