STOP PRESS PT Kizone workers paid by Adidas, A huge thanks and congratulations to everyone who helped win this momentous struggle.
In April 2011, 2,800 workers in Indonesia lost their jobs after their factory, PT Kizone, closed down. Since then these workers have been fighting to get the $3.4 million they are owed in severance pay. Since the closure many workers have been unable to find new work and struggle to stay in their homes and keep their children at school. An international campaign has called on brands producing at PT Kizone to pay severance. While Nike and Dallas Cowboys have paid $1.6million to the fund, adidas has refused to pay a penny, despite strong international campaigning. Join the Footlocker International Day of Action on 22nd April. Act Now!
