Tire manufacturer Fate workers protest outside labor secretariat
Workers from the Argentine tire manufacturer Fate protested outside the country’s Labor Secretariat and staged a 24-hour strike over the potential closure of the company’s plant. The shutdown could eliminate more than 900 jobs, and negotiations between government officials, union representatives, and the company have so far failed to produce an agreement. The government extended a mandatory conciliation period while talks continue.
