Protocol shows promising signs for workers in Indonesia
The region’s first Freedom of Association Protocol is showing promising signs for factory workers in Indonesia, several Indonesian union leaders report.
Adopted in June last year, the Freedom of Association Protocol was the product of an 18-month negotiation process between Indonesian unions, factory management and international brands, including Nike and Adidas. The protocol has now been signed by 6 major sportswear brands, together with a number of manufacturers and leading Indonesian unions.
