USA: Mexican and Central American workers strike against fruit companies for violating their right to health during the pandemic

Workers from companies in the Yakima Valley in Washington, mainly Mexicans and Central Americans, have complained that companies have not taken sufficient measures to ensure their health and safety throughout the Covid-19 pandemic.  The companies include Monson Fruit, Jack Frost Fruit, Allan Brothers Fruit Company, Columbia Reach, Matson Fruit and Madden Fruit.  In press articles, the companies have expressed their compliance with guidelines, although workers say otherwise.

The Business and Human Rights Resource Centre contacted Monson Fruit, Jack Frost Fruit, Allan Brothers Fruit Company and Columbia Reach to respond to the allegations; the companies did not respond.  We were not able to contact Matson Fruit or Madden Fruit.
