Ford India workers continue their protest inside, outside factory

Around 2,000 workers of Ford India Private Ltd continued their protest from inside and outside the factory near here, demanding better final compensation as the company has decided to shut down the plant sometime next month.

“Workers who had entered the factory on Monday morning have not come out while the workers who had gone for the second shift work are outside the factory gates,” a source told IANS on Tuesday.

According to him, an official from the state Labour Department had come to the factory.

“This will be the final job for most of the workers. We may go as contract labour as age is against us. The office staff can get job elsewhere or even in Ford’s other business ventures here,” he said.
