A Cebu-based manufacturing company, Metrowear, a maker of Lululemon
apparel in the Philippines, is embroiled in a prolonged labor dispute—from
preventing union formation to failure to negotiate CBA with the latter.
Lululemon is a global garment brand of activewear,
loungewear and footwear products. Its anti-union stance caught the attention of
global unions, thus, the coordinated and simultaneous Global Day of Action in
solidarity with the local union struggle. Solidarity actions are planned in the
US and Canada to coincide with the actions in Cebu and Manila.
The action tomorrow will be attended by activists in garment
producing countries such as Pakistan and Bangladesh as an expression of international
worker solidarity.
The actions in Cebu already transpired today and have been
well covered by the Cebu mass media:
