Perú - Union leaders sacked at Saturn

The management at Saturn, an agri-business firm in the district of Chulucanas, sacked trade union leaders Mercedes Camacho Juárez and Luis Alberto Manrique Santos, who had been elected in November 2013 to serve as Women’s Secretary and Organising Secretary for the Sindicato de Trabajadores Agrarios de Perú (SITAG). The company used the expiry of the two employees’ employment contracts to cover up the real reason behind their dismissal.
