Perú - Union busting actions by Hialpesa (2013)

Since 2013, Hialpesa, supplier of garments to Nautica, Guess, and The North Face, has effectively ignored a labour inspectorate order to convert over 1000 workers to permanent contracts. In 2014, the company threatened to close a spinning plant where 90 percent of union members worked, and an independent report found that management violated the law by secretly approaching individual union members to offer them buyouts.
