Pacific Sports Haiti
TWRC te mennen yon ankèt sou yon plent yon sendika ke yo rele SOTA-BO te depoze bay WRC. WRC te jwenn ke Pacific Sports Haiti, ki se pwopriyete Peace Textile, te vyole dwa libète asosiyasyon ouvriye nan faktori li yo. Faktori a te revoke lidè ouvriye nan faktori li nan yon fason diskriminatwa pandan yon rediksyon pèsonèl ki te fèt ant ane 2022 ak 2024. Pacific Sports te refize ofri lidè ouvriye yo opòtinite pou yo transfere nan lòt pozisyon ki te disponib andedan operasyon faktori a. Pou korije vyolasyon sa a, WRC a te rekòmande pou Pacific Sports re-entegre travayè ki afekte yo, epi pou peye ovriye yo salè pou tan ke yo te pèdi akoz de revokasyon ilegal la. Pacific Sports pat vle pran mezi ki nesesè pou korije vyolasyon an. WRC te kontakte lisansye inivèsitè Pacific Sports la, ki se MV Sport. Nou te mande MV Sport pou li pran aksyon korektif kont Pacific Sports. Akoz de sa MV Sport te enfòme Pacific Sports ke li tap sispann achete rad nan men faktoril yo jiskaske vyolasyon estanda lisans inivèsite yo te korije nan faktori Pacific Sports yo.The factory discriminatorily dismissed worker leaders as part of staff reductions that occurred between 2022 and 2024 by refusing these workers the opportunity to transfer to other positions within the factory’s operation.
To remedy the violation, the WRC recommended reinstatement and payment of back wages to the affected workers. However, Pacific Sports Haiti was unwilling to take the required remedial action. The WRC then engaged with the licensee, MV Sport, which urged the supplier to take corrective action. However, the supplier factory was unwilling to do so and, as a result, MV Sport informed the supplier that it would discontinue business with this factory until such time as the violations of university licensing standards were remedied.
