[Cort-CoreTek]Workers in South Korea who suffered long working hours, low wages and industrial accident while making Cort guitars formed a labor union to change the harsh working conditions. But a year later, the company sacked all the workers and shut down the guitar factory. Workers have been struggling on the streets for 13 years, but every year the company makes profits through its overseas plants and the CEO has become a rich man through stock dividend payouts. Guitars should not be a means to exploit workers. Dismissing workers should not be a decision taken lightly. Please support guitar workers fighting to regain their lost lives.
Take Action!
1.) Take a selfie supporting the guitar workers’ fight and share on social media with the hashtag #NoCort
2.) Voice your view on the Cort Guitar Facebook page
3.) Call Cor-Tek Corporation at +82-2-3661-1981
