2007
ILO violation 87,98 : Anti union practice in Pittsburgh, Pensylvania et Monsey, New-York.: United States of America
2006
ILO violation 87 : Verizon Communications has accelerated its assault on workers’ rights with its merger with non-union MCI, which has become a new unit called Verizon Business. Workers reported that Verizon is was shifting work away from union technicians employed in the Domestic Telecom segment of the company to non-union workers at Verizon Business. If this trend continues, it will clearly be seen as an attempt to significantly undermine the union’s strength as the parties gear up for contract negotiations covering approximately 60,000 workers in 2008.: United States of America
