أعلن الاتحاد الوطني لنقابات العمال والمستخدمين في لبنان "ان عمال شركة خضر فليفل الصناعية ونقابة عمال البناء ومشتقاتها في بيروت وجبل لبنان والاتحاد جددوا اعتصامهم اليوم أمام مقر الشركة في خلدة بعد تراجع الشركة عن الاتفاق المسبق بينها وبين نقابة البناء والاتحاد الوطني بدفع بدل النقل والمستحقات وبدل الرواتب المكسور للعمال". واوضح في بيان "سيستمر الاعتصام حتى دفع الرواتب المكسورة وبدل منح التعليم وبدل النقل وبدل التعويضات العائلية وبدل المستحقات المالية للعمال"، مطالبا وزارة العمل ب "التدخل السريع لفرض تطبيق قانون العمل وإلزام إدارة الشركة القيام بواجبها ودفع كافة المستحقات من بدل منح التعليم وبدل النقل والرواتب المكسورة وكل ما هو حق للعمال".
