In a letter addressed to the chairman of Nestle, Peter Brabeck, the co-president of the European work’s council Jörg Lindner reminds that “Nestle was committed to respect minimal standards in terms of law and responsibility in its world activities, in accordance with its Principles of good conduct” underlines Jörg Lindner, who denounces the practices of the company Musim Mas, “we believe the massive dismissal of trade union members, their expulsion of their residences, the eviction of their children from schools and the recourse to police force and the legal system in order to criminalize legitimate trade-union activities are obvious infringements to these standards and values”.
