Institutional Shareholder Services (ISS), the leading independent proxy advisory firm in the United States, has recommended that shareholders of energy multinational Unocal vote for a proposal concerning workplace practices. 
 
The resolution has been tabled for the company's upcoming May 20 annual meeting. It calls on the board of directors to adopt and implement an enforceable company-wide employee policy based on the Declaration on Fundamental Principles and Rights at Work. Adopted by the UN's International Labour Organisation (ILO), the Declaration opposes child labour and forced labour, while enshrining the right to form and join trade unions and to bargain collectively and the right to no discrimination or intimidation in employment. 
 
The Longview Collective Investment Fund of the Amalgamated Bank and the Paper, Allied-Industrial, Chemical and Energy Workers International Union (PACE) are the sponsors of the proposal. The American labour federation AFL-CIO, the British Trades Union Congress and the 20-million-strong International Federation of Chemical, Energy, Mine and General Workers' Unions (ICEM) are also urging shareholders to support this resolution. PACE is an ICEM affiliate. 
 
&quot;ISS recognises the value of labour standards and formal company policies on human rights practices, particularly for companies that have operations in countries where there are fewer protections for workers,&quot; the ISS report states. &quot;Ethical issues aside, there may also be very real implications for the bottom line. As borne out by the recent experience of some high-profile manufacturers and retailers, an increasing number of consumers and shareholders are seriously concerned about whether low wages and abusive working conditions exist in facilities patronised by U.S. companies; firms that do not share that concern can risk damage to their corporate reputation and possible consumer backlash.&quot; 
 
&quot;We are pleased that ISS - a truly independent expert - recognises that Unocal's endorsement of global labour standards would benefit the company and its shareholders,&quot; said AFL-CIO Secretary-Treasurer Richard Trumka. 
 
&quot;ISS's recommendation is one more indication that this proposal is gaining support among institutional investors,&quot; added Kenneth Zinn, ICEM North American Regional Coordinator. &quot;We believe its adoption would promote shareholder value.&quot; 
 
ISS noted that a similar proposal submitted at last year's Unocal annual meeting received approximately 23 percent of the vote. &quot;This turnout suggests that many mainstream investors, in addition to socially conscious investors and human rights activists, are concerned about the company's human rights record and involvement in Burma,&quot; the report stated. &quot;In light of the serious human rights concerns in a number of the countries where the company operates (including Burma), we believe that this step of publicly endorsing these international labour standards and adopting independent monitoring will benefit the company and its shareholders.&quot;

Proxy Advisers Back Unocal Ethics Vote

Meeting in Washington this week, senior officials from seventeen paper and graphical trade unions in eleven countries resolved to build global union networks at four multinational corporations. 
 
The unprecedented meeting was jointly sponsored by the International Federation of Chemical, Energy, Mine and General Workers' Unions (ICEM) and UNI Graphical, both global trade union federations. The union leaders came from Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Iceland, Ireland, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden, the United Kingdom and the United States. 
 
The unions agreed to build global trade union networks at four multinational companies in the paper, packaging and graphical industries - Finnish-based Huhtam&auml;ki, Irish-based Jefferson Smurfit Group plc and its affiliated company Smurfit Stone Container Corp, Canadian-based Quebecor Inc. and Swedish-based Svenska Cellulosa Aktiebolaget. These companies employ approximately 170,000 people in over 40 countries around the world. 
 
The unions agreed to form global union networks for workers to share information and experiences, build international union solidarity, and develop new tools for unions to contend with the challenges of globalisation. 
 
The delegates expressed their concern about the uneven record of these and other multinational companies in their treatment of their employees' rights to organise unions and engage in collective bargaining, and agreed to take joint action to try to ensure that workers' rights are respected everywhere in the world that the companies conduct business.

Paper And Graphical Unions Forge Cross-Border Networks

Warrants for the arrest of South Korean power workers' leaders should be withdrawn immediately, the 20-million-strong International Federation of Chemical, Energy, Mine and General Workers' Unions (ICEM) urged today. 
 
&quot;The unionised workers at power plant subsidiaries of the Korea Electric Power Corp. (KEPCO) are engaged in peaceful industrial action,&quot; wrote ICEM General Secretary Fred Higgs in a protest message to South Korea's President Kim Dae-jung. &quot;The State's response has been to issue warrants for the arrest of 24 union leaders. We also understand that state-owned KEPCO has decided to dismiss more than 5,000 workers, to bring in replacement workers and to sue more than 200 trade union officers. 
 
&quot;All of this is wholly unacceptable in a democratic society,&quot; Higgs told President Kim. &quot;It constitutes a breach of the internationally recognised right to strike. We urge you to do your utmost to ensure that the arrest warrants are withdrawn immediately and that KEPCO rescinds all threats of dismissal and legal action. Your government should also negotiate sympathetically with the striking workers' union and should press KEPCO to do likewise.&quot; 
 
Over 5,000 power workers grouped within the Korean Power Plant Industrial Union have been on strike for the past nine days - mainly over plans to privatise South Korea's electricity industry. 
 
Unions were never consulted about the privatisation scheme. The decision was unilaterally imposed by the government in December 2000. 
 
South Korea's electric power unions are prepared to continue a dialogue aimed at finding solutions, but the government withdrew from the negotiating table and backed the unions into a corner by replacing strikers with retired workers. The unions' demand is for a full debate on privatisation, with the involvement of relevant civil society organisations and of the consumers.

Korean Power Strike: Halt Arrests And Restart Talks

Yet another Colombian oilworkers' leader has been kidnapped. 
 
Gilberto Torres was abducted on Monday evening, as he was on his way home from his office. Torres is the General Secretary of the pipeline section of the Colombian oilworkers' federation USO. 
 
This is &quot;one more act of violence,&quot; says the 20-million-strong International Federation of Chemical, Energy, Mine and General Workers' Unions (ICEM) in a protest message to Colombia's President Andr&eacute;s Pastrana. 
 
&quot;Time and again,&quot; the ICEM reminds Pastrana, &quot;we have asked your government to take steps to punish those responsible for the persecution and murder of trade union leaders.&quot; The ICEM says that the Colombian authorities have allowed the murderers and those behind them to go unpunished. &quot;Since the beginning of this year alone, more than 20 trade unionists have been murdered,&quot; the ICEM points out. It calls on the Colombian government to &quot;take effective measures to track down, judge and punish those responsible for this crime.&quot; 
 
Colombia is the world's most dangerous country for trade unionists. Last year, more than 130 union activists were murdered there.

Colombian Oil Workers&#039; Leader Kidnapped

Miners in the Spanish province of Huelva have vowed to continue protests over plans to close many of the area's metal mines. A meeting between unions and the Spanish government in Madrid yesterday proved &quot;very negative,&quot; the miners' leaders said. 
 
The campaign includes an underground sit-in by thirteen miners. They have already spent twenty days 400 metres below the surface. Despite some health problems brought on by the damp, they are determined to stay put. 
 
The miners' unions, FIA-UGT and FM CC.OO, will also be organising further demonstrations in Huelva and beyond. 
 
Large crowds of miners demonstrated outside government offices in Huelva city yesterday while the discussions took place in Madrid. They accused the Spanish government of &quot;ducking the issue and passing the buck&quot;. 
 
Parts of Huelva have an ancient mining tradition. The recent threat by a number of companies to shut down the metal mines would deal a severe blow to the local economy. Some companies argue that the mines are uneconomic, although there is considerable dispute about this. 
 
The unions are demanding extended unemployment benefits for laid-off miners, an early retirement scheme, economic diversification projects for the affected areas and the continuance of mining activities. Union leaders also denounced the lack of minimum maintenance at some of the mines. 
 
At the global level, FM CC.OO. and FIA-UGT are affiliated to the 20-million-strong International Federation of Chemical, Energy, Mine and General Workers' Unions (ICEM). 
 
&quot;We entirely support our Spanish colleagues in their struggle to defend their mines and to secure decent replacement incomes,&quot; declared ICEM General Secretary Fred Higgs. &quot;All too often around the world, commercial short-termism has destroyed mining communities and irreparably damaged valuable mines. That is a waste of resources - and, above all, a waste of people. The miners of Huelva can count on the solidarity of mine and allied workers everywhere.&quot;

Spanish Miners Protest; Above Ground And Below

Shareholders are pressing US-based oil multinational Mobil to review its investments in Nigeria in the light of continuing human rights violations there. 
 
Two institutional shareholders announced today that they will be tabling a human rights motion at Mobil's annual shareholders' meeting on 14 May. In particular, they want the company to push for the release of two detained Nigerian oilworkers' leaders. 
 
The Mobil shareholders' move is a further step in the world trade union campaign to free Milton Dabibi, General Secretary of oil and gas workers' union PENGASSAN, and Frank Kokori, General Secretary of oil and gas workers' union NUPENG. 
 
Kokori has been detained without trial in Nigeria since 1994 and Dabibi since January 1996. Both are in poor health, and their condition is reported to be deteriorating rapidly. They are still being denied access to the medical care that they need. They are also barred from contact with lawyers and with their unions, which are being run by government-imposed administrators. Dabibi and Kokori are both recognised by Amnesty International as prisoners of conscience. 
 
The two Mobil shareholders tabling the motion are Franklin Research and Development Corporation, a US-based socially responsible investment firm with 500 million US dollars in client assets, and the Service Employees International Union Master Trust. They have jointly filed a resolution asking the Mobil board of directors to review and develop guidelines for company investments in countries where &quot;there is a pattern of ongoing and systematic violation of human rights; a government is illegitimate; there is a call by human right advocates, pro-democracy organisations or legitimately elected representatives for economic sanctions; and Mobil's long-term financial performance may be potentially threatened by international criticism, economic sanctions and boycotts by consumers and local governments.&quot; 
 
The resolution notes that all of these factors are in place in Nigeria. Mobil is in direct partnership with the state-owned Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation and has made payments, including royalties, fees and taxes, to the military government. The resolution further notes that the International Labour Organisation (ILO) has found Nigeria in violation of internationally-accepted labour standards and has demanded the release of union leaders Frank Kokori and Milton Dabibi and others held incommunicado without charge or trial. 
 
Last week, the ILO voiced &quot;outrage&quot; over Nigeria's continued flouting of basic labour rights. The ILO, a UN agency in which the world's unions, employers and governments are represented, has now set up a special commission to investigate worker rights in Nigeria, notably the situation of the imprisoned trade unionists. 
 
&quot;It is past time for Mobil to take action on behalf of Kokori and Dabibi,&quot; said Andrew Stern, President of the 1.1-million-member Service Employees International Union (SEIU). &quot;Reports from Nigeria indicate that these union leaders are very sick and may die in jail.&quot; Mobil, he insisted, must &quot;use its influence with the Nigerian government to seek the release of the duly elected leaders of its Nigerian employees.&quot; 
 
&quot;Mobil's complete lack of action on human rights in Nigeria has exposed the company to considerable business risk,&quot; said Simon Billenness, senior analyst of Franklin Research and Development Corporation. &quot;Until democracy is restored there, Nigeria provides an unstable business climate.&quot; 
 
The two shareholders have a combined investment in Mobil Corp. of 49,500 shares, worth more than 3.9 million US dollars. 
 
Leading the world trade union campaign to free Dabibi and Kokori is the 20-million-strong International Federation of Chemical, Energy, Mine and General Workers' Unions (ICEM), to which PENGASSAN, NUPENG and the SEIU are affiliated. 
 
The ICEM has called for full UN economic sanctions against Nigeria, including an oil embargo, unless the ILO commission is permitted to enter the country and Dabibi and Kokori are released without further delay. Meanwhile, the ICEM is maintaining its own preparations for targeted action against Nigerian oil exports into a number of key countries - including the USA, which is the biggest importer of Nigerian crude (see ICEM UPDATE 20/98). 
 
The inclusion of the shareholder resolution on Mobil's proxy statement follows meetings on this issue between senior Mobil management, institutional shareholders and other concerned organisations. 
 
Corporate human rights policies have already been discussed at the global level between the ICEM and a number of multinationals, including Shell.

Nigerian Rights Abuses: Mobil Shareholders Seek Investment Review

Oil multinational Total is to resume sales of World Cup '98 footballs bearing its logo, a spokeswoman told ICEM UPDATE this afternoon. She said the company had received &quot;formal certification&quot; that no child labour was involved in the production of the balls. The certification came from Lucerne-based ISL Marketing, which handles licensing deals for the World Cup. Total has therefore lifted its suspension of its supply contract with Dutch-based football manufacturer Smits Plastics. 
 
French oilworkers' unions had raised the issue with Total after video footage was screened on French TV, apparently showing Pakistani children stitching World Cup soccer balls bearing the Total logo. Both Total and Smits say they have examined the footage from which the TV version was edited. They claim that the pictures screened on French TV were a &quot;misleading montage&quot;. 
 
This does not, of course, mean that child labour has been eliminated from Pakistan's football industry, which produces most of the world's stitched soccer balls. The International Confederation of Free Trade Unions, the textile workers' international ITGLWF and the commercial workers' FIET are holding further discussions with football's world governing body, FIFA, and the sporting goods industry concerning child labour and other labour rights issues in the sporting goods industry.

Total Resumes Football Sales

Escalating its pressure on the Nigerian government, the UN's International Labour Organisation (ILO) has launched a Commission of Inquiry to investigate trade union rights abuses there. Earlier, in unusually strong language, a key ILO committee had voiced &quot;outrage&quot; over Nigeria's continued flouting of internationally recognised labour rights. 
 
The Commission of Enquiry was set up yesterday by the ILO's Governing Body, in which the world's governments, employers and trade unions are represented. Significantly, the commission was established under Article 26 of the ILO Constitution, whose provisions are invoked only in the event of persistent and serious violations of international labour standards and the repeated refusal of a member state to bring its labour practices into line with ILO rulings. Such a commission's findings are final. According to international lawyers, its conclusions can then be challenged only in the International Court of Justice in The Hague. 
 
The ILO Committee on Freedom of Association has repeatedly called on Nigeria's military-led government to release imprisoned trade unionists, end harassment of trade unions and take measures to guarantee respect for the civil liberties essential to trade union rights. In recent findings, the Committee underscored the persistent deterioration of trade union rights and denounced the non-respect of civil liberties in Nigeria. 
 
In its current session, the Committee expressed its &quot;outrage&quot; at the way in which the Nigerian government has ignored repeated requests to modify its labour regime and allow a special mission into the country to examine the state of trade union rights and visit imprisoned trade unionists. 
 
The Committee said the Nigerian government has repeatedly ignored calls for a mission to examine trade union rights in the country and to visit trade unionists detained without trial, &quot;at least one of whom has been detained for over three years.&quot; 
 
This is a reference to Frank Kokori, General Secretary of Nigerian oil and gas workers' union NUPENG. Kokori has been held since 1994. His colleague Milton Dabibi, General Secretary of Nigerian oil and gas workers' union PENGASSAN, has been in jail since January 1996. Neither has been charged with any offence. 
 
The two Nigerian labour leaders are recognised as prisoners of conscience by Amnesty International. Their health is reported to be deteriorating. They have been denied access to adequate medical care and legal assistance. Their unions are being run by government-imposed &quot;sole administrators.&quot; Union bank accounts have been frozen, and the check-off of union dues has been frozen. Many oilworkers sacked on government orders after the 1994 strike in the Nigerian oil industry have never been reinstated. 
 
 
 
World oil conference protest 
 
This is not the first time the Nigerian government has been in trouble at the ILO recently. 
 
Nigeria was seriously embarrassed in full view of the world's oil companies, oil unions and governments last month at an ILO world conference on industrial relations and freedom of association in the oil refining sector. 
 
Conceived as a mainly technical meeting, the conference was in fact completely overshadowed by the cases of Dabibi and Kokori. The two democratically elected oilworkers' leaders had been invited by name to take part in the talks, but the Nigerian government refused to release them so that they could attend. 
 
The workers' group at the conference, consisting of oilworkers' leaders from all continents, was disgusted by the presence of Nigerian government representatives there while the Nigerian oil unions are under government control and their elected leaders are rotting in jail. This was, after all, a UN-backed world conference on how to promote freedom of association in oil refining ... 
 
Coordinating the workers' group was the 20-million-strong International Federation of Chemical, Energy, Mine and General Workers' Unions (ICEM), to which the two Nigerian oil and gas unions are affiliated. 
 
The workers' group kept Nigeria at the top of the agenda throughout last month's conference and intensively lobbied government and employer representatives. As a result, the governmental, oil company and oil union delegates to the meeting adopted a formal conclusion referring specifically to the ILO's ongoing Freedom of Association case 1793 (Nigeria) and calling on the ILO Governing Body to resolve problems. Yesterday's Governing Body decision is in part a response to that call from the world's oil industry and governments. 
 
 
 
Sanctions call 
 
&quot;The Nigerian government is thumbing its nose at the UN and its specialised agency, the ILO,&quot; commented ICEM General Secretary Vic Thorpe today. &quot;It is therefore cocking a snook at the world community. The ILO commission must be permitted to enter Nigeria without delay, and Milton Dabibi and Frank Kokori must be released now. If not, the only adequate UN response will be the introduction of full economic sanctions against Nigeria, including the imposition of a world embargo on Nigerian oil exports.&quot; 
 
In the meantime, Thorpe said, key ICEM affiliates would maintain preparations for targeted international action of their own against Nigerian oil. This readiness includes stepped-up campaigning by oilworkers in the USA, the world's biggest importer of Nigerian crude (see ICEM UPDATE 20/1998). The campaign to free Dabibi and Kokori is supported by the world trade union movement as a whole, including the International Transport Workers' Federation (ITF), which organises seafarers and port workers worldwide.

ILO &quot;Outrage&quot; Over Nigerian Abuses

Oil multinational Total has suspended distribution of World Cup '98 footballs bearing its logo, following allegations that they were made by children. 
 
The balls were to have been sold at the company's filling stations across Europe as part of a sales promotion. But a Total spokeswoman told ICEM UPDATE this afternoon that the company has temporarily blocked distribution of the footballs. Pending investigations, it has also suspended its contract with the supplier, Dutch-based Smits Plastics, and has instructed service stations not to sell any of the balls that have already been distributed. 
 
Total is &quot;extremely surprised&quot; by the allegations, the spokeswoman said. Meetings are, she stated, continuing today at the company's headquarters in France to &quot;try to understand what happened.&quot; In particular, Total is checking if the footballs shown being made by Pakistani children in recent video footage are, in fact, those that it ordered. 
 
French oil workers' unions affiliated to the International Federation of Chemical, Energy, Mine and General Workers' Unions (ICEM) had asked Total for an urgent explanation of the video scenes, which were subsequently screened on French television. 
 
Total told the unions, FCE-CFDT and F&eacute;d&eacute;chimie CGTFO, that it had ordered World Cup footballs, intended for a sales promotion, from Smits Plastics. The World Cup organisers have licensed Smits to produce and market footballs bearing the World Cup '98 logo. Total points out that Smits has twice confirmed in writing that no children are engaged in its football production in Sialkot, Pakistan. 
 
Via its French affiliates, the ICEM has received copies of two faxes from Smits Plastics to Total. Both were sent from Smits' offices in Belgium. The first dates from 27 May 1997, when Total was concluding the production contract. This fax states: &quot;The balls are hand-sewn, with checks to ensure that no children are involved.&quot; The second fax, dated 19 March 1998, says: &quot;We hereby reconfirm that the 'TOTAL balls' are not manufactured by children.&quot; [Both quotes are translations from the original French.] 
 
Total had, its spokeswoman confirmed today, received Smits Plastic's address from Swiss-based ISL Marketing, which is handling licensing deals for the World Cup. 
 
Publicised by the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU), the video material shows young Pakistani children stitching soccer balls bearing the official France '98 World Cup logo. Some also appear to carry the logos of Total and Mastercard and the signature of Brazilian football legend Pele. The children, some working side by side with adults, are believed to receive around 30 US cents each for footballs which sell overseas for up to 75 US dollars. 
 
The video was shot earlier this month by a journalist investigating child labour for the unions. He visited houses and workshops in villages near Sialkot, Pakistan, where most of the world's soccer balls are stitched. In Jarawalli village, he filmed young boys stitching footballs, and interviewed a family of six young girls, aged between 5 and 12. The five-year-old was punching holes in the leather pieces, which are then sewn by her sisters. 
 
Contacted by ICEM UPDATE today, Smits Plastics' office in Belgium again insisted that their footballs are not produced by child labour. The company's plant in Sialkot, Pakistan, employs only adults, a company spokesman said. He also stated that the plant had repeatedly been inspected by the UN's International Labour Organisation (ILO) as part of a campaign against the use of child labour in Sialkot, which is the centre of the world's soccer ball industry. He did, however, conceed that some production is still sent out to home-based workers, but he repeated that children are not involved. 
 
Smits says there is currently a brisk market for pirated &quot;World Cup&quot; footballs, and suggests that the video footage shows such unlicensed production. 
 
The ICFTU, ICEM and other union internationals are cooperating in a campaign against the exploitation of child labour worldwide. 
 
In fact, football's world governing body FIFA already has an agreement with the international trade union movement to help phase out the use of child labour in football production. The accord is with the ICFTU, the textile and allied workers' international ITGLWF and the FIET union international, whose coverage includes shop workers. To implement the agreement, FIFA and the ILO last year introduced inspection procedures for football production. Union internationals will now be holding new talks with FIFA, to raise concerns that local companies are evading the inspections.

Total Stops Sale Of &quot;Child Labour&quot; Footballs

French oil workers are seeking an urgent clarification from energy multinational Total over the use of the company's logo on footballs produced by child labour. Total is headquartered in France. 
 
Trade union investigators have just released new video footage of young Pakistani children stitching soccer balls, apparently bearing the official World Cup logo. Some also appear to carry the logos of Total and Mastercard and the signature of Brazilian football legend Pel&eacute;. 
 
The children, some working side by side with adults, are believed to receive around 30 US cents each for footballs which sell overseas for up to US$75. 
 
Earlier this month, a journalist investigating child labour for the unions visited houses and workshops in villages near Sialkot, Pakistan, where most of the world's soccer balls are stitched. In Jarawalli village, he filmed young boys stitching footballs, and interviewed a family of six young girls, aged between 5 and 12. The five-year-old was punching holes in the leather pieces, which are then sewn by her sisters. 
 
The video footage is being publicised by the International Confederation of Free Trade Unions (ICFTU), and is likely to be screened on French TV shortly. The International Federation of Chemical, Energy, Mine and General Workers' Unions (ICEM) and other union internationals are cooperating with the ICFTU in a campaign against the exploitation of child labour worldwide. 
 
It is not yet clear whether Total actually authorised the use of its logo on the child-made footballs, but the ICEM-affiliated French chemical and energy workers' union FCE-CFDT says it is &quot;now taking all necessary steps vis-a-vis the General Management of the Total group in order to obtain full clarification of this affair.&quot; 
 
And the union declares: &quot;Without wishing to anticipate the answers that it will receive, the FCE-CFDT reaffirms its unswerving commitment, within the international trade union movement, to the struggle for the respect of working people's rights and basic freedoms. It is up to Total to provide rapidly all the explanations that have been asked for. The FCE-CFDT will be watching to make sure it does.&quot; 
 
In fact, football's world governing body FIFA already has an agreement with the international trade union movement to help phase out the use of child labour in football production. The accord is with the ICFTU, the textile and allied workers' international ITGLWF and the FIET union international, whose coverage includes shop workers. To implement the agreement, FIFA and the UN's International Labour Organisation last year introduced inspection procedures for football production. Union internationals will now be holding new talks with FIFA, to raise concerns that local companies are evading the inspections.
