14/3/2013 - Picket at Putrajaya

Electronic Industry Employees Union Western Region, Peninsular Malaysia (EIEUWR)/ Kesatuan Sekerja Industri Elektronik Wilayah Barat Semenjung Malaysia(KSIEWBSM) and workers from RENESAS Semiconductor KL Sdn Bhd (formerly known as NEC Semiconductors (Malaysia) Sdn Bhd]  picketed on 14/3/2013 in front of the Ministry of Human Resources in Putrajaya, Malaysia. The protest was because the Director General of Industrial Resources was procrastinating and not proceeding firmly towards a secret ballot and recognition of the union.

RENESAS have been denying recognition of the Union for over 3 years now, and now they are not submitting the FORM B, a required form that need be submitted before a secret ballot can be conducted...

About 150 workers picketed, and more would have joined if it was not a working day..
