The International Workers Association (IWA) by its Secretariat strongly condemns the dismissal by the GFK Company of the worker Eva Lopez.

The workers tried to organize for improvements in working conditions, but the result was persecution, harassment, stigmatization and finally a dismissal of Eva. This dismissal is clearly to be seen as retaliation.

The IWA will spread the information about the unjust dismissal worldwide and we will not stop the solidarity until Eva Lopez gets her job back!
