Industri Energi (IE), one of ICEM’s Norwegian affiliates, announced opening of the nomination process for the Second Annual Arthur Svensson International Award for Trade Union Rights. The prestigious award comes with a cash prize of NOK 500,000 (€65,000) and is awarded to a person or organisation for contributing greatly to promoting trade union rights and the strengthening of trade unionism on both international and national levels. 
 
Nominations are due by 1 March 2011, and can be made by Norwegian trade unions, by trade union affiliates associated with global unions, or the global unions themselves. A nomination must contain a solid justification for the candidate, make clear who is nominating the candidate, and spell out the nominator’s relationship with the candidate.

Arthur Svensson
In 2010, Wellington Chibebe, the General Secretary of the Zimbabwe Congress of Trade Unions (ZCTU), was awarded the prize at IE’s Congress in Oslo in October. (See the ICEM news article <a href="/en/78-ICEM-InBrief/4056-Zimbabwe’s-Wellington-Chibebe-Receives-First-Norwegian-Labour-Prize" type="internal">here</a>.) The 2011 award winner will be announced on 16 June. 
 
The award is named after Arthur Svensson, a long-time leader of Norsk Kjemisk Forbund, the Norwegian Chemical Workers’ Association, which merged in 2006 with NOPEF to create IE. Svensson died in 2008, but left a legacy in Norway and beyond as a man who promoted global peace, disarmament, and a nuclear weapons-free world. 
 
He was also a driving force from his union leadership position in developing Norway’s environment law, and a strong proponent of clean energy to drive clean industries. But first and foremost, he was a dedicated trade unionist, maintaining membership in LO-Norway for 61 years, the final 48 of those years with the Chemical Workers. 
 
Nominations can be e-mailed or faxed to Svensson Award Committee Chairperson <a href="http://liv.undheim@industrienergi.no">Liv Undheim</a>, fax no. +47 23 06 13 60. Further information on the award, in English, can be found <a href="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/1101.arthur%20svensson%20flyer%20EN.pdf " type="internal">here</a>.

The spate of horrid flooding in the Australian state of Queensland has brought out the best in Australian trade unionism. Nearly all unions have either dedicated money to one relief agency or another, with some setting up their own benevolent funds to assist those in need. 
 
The Mining and Energy Division of the Construction, Forestry, Mining, and Energy Union’s (CFMEU) Central Council on 12 January authorised A$250,000 to help families caught up in the devastating Queensland floods. 
 
“The donation is our first step in providing hands on relief,” stated Energy and Mining General Secretary Andrew Vickers, who also serves as Chairman of ICEM’s Mining Sector. “Queensland and all of Australia will be affected by these floods as coal production grinds to a halt. The union will be there every step of the way supporting workers and communities.” 
<img src="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/AUSTRALIAAMWU.jpg" width="90" height="90" alt=""/>
The Queensland branch of the Australian Manufacturing Workers’ Union (AMWU) has established a fund and kick-started it with A$20,000 in seed money. The funds will go to the <a href="http://www.qld.gov.au/floods/donate.html ">Queensland Premier’s Flood Relief Appeal</a>. 
 
“This is an important way for our large union membership to show solidarity and make a positive difference to the devastated communities,” said State Secretary Andrew Dettmer. “The floods have had an impact on tens of thousands of AMWU members, their homes and workplaces in Rockhampton, Brisbane, Toowoombia, and throughout the south-east and Central Queensland. 
 
Donations to the AMWU fund can be made to: AMWU Disaster Appeal Account; Bank: NAB; BSB: 082 057; Account Number: 188 989 948. 
<img src="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/Australia AWU.jpg" width="140" height="73" alt=""/>
As of last week, members of the Australian Workers’ Union (AWU) have collectively donated A$100,000 to the Queensland Premier’s Flood Relief Appeal. In addition, the AWU federal office has contributed A$50,000 and the Victorian branch of the union also has donated. The AWU’s Queensland branch office was closed for a week due to the floods, and only reopened today. 
 
The Maritime Union of Australia (MUA) has established the Australia Flood Appeal Fund, with both the national office and the Queensland branch each seeding A$5,000 into the fund. The MUA has many port workers and seamen affected since the Port of Brisbane was shut last week, with vessels directed out to sea. 
 
The MUA’s Appeal Fund for international money transfers: MUA-General Fund; Bank: Maritime Mining and Power Credit Union, George Street, Haymarket, NSW 2000, Australia; BSB Number: 062-006; Account number: 10001 0464; CBA Swiftcode: CTBAAU2S.

Unit chapel leaders at some 50 corrugated paper operations in the UK, representing some 2,500 Unite the Union members, recently recommended acceptance of a 2010 pay package. Paperworkers represented by both Unite and GMB will now vote in the coming weeks on a pay accord that was agreed to with Confederation of Paper Industries (CPI) in mid-December. 
 
The CPI, representing major corrugated boxboard and packaging employers at plants mostly owned by DS Smith, SmurfitKappa, and SAICA, agreed to raise their wage offer from 2.1% to 2.5% last month in response to the unions moving forward on a ballot for industrial action. 
 
The offer, when accepted by members of the two unions, will be retroactive to 1 September 2010, the date a prior one-year accord expired. 
<img src="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/1011.peter.ellis.unite.gif" width="140" height="109" alt=""/>
Unite National Officer Peter Ellis
Unite and GMB were set to file for an industrial ballot on 10 January. Unite represents the majority of workers in the UK’s corrugated paper sector, while GMB represents some 800 workers in the sector. 
 
The 14-member joint union/CPI bargaining body began 2010 negotiations in July, but talks became bogged down in October when CPI offered a pay hike of less than half of the retail price index. Unite National Officer Peter Ellis says now that the tentative settlement falls into the upper level of median pay awards in all industries in the UK this year. 
 
Meanwhile, Unite and Kimberly Clark reached an early accord for 2011 that was agreed to by workers in December. The agreement covers 500 workers at two towel and tissue mills, the Northfleet mill in Kent and the Barrow-in-Furness mill in Cumbria. The 2011 pay award, effective 1 February, will be 1.5%, with Unite also winning a lump sum bonus of £1,450. That lump sum will also be calculated into the pension contribution, thus raising the benefit level.

The Building & Woodworkers International (BWI) is calling for trade unionists to register protests with the Indonesia minister of Manpower and Transmigration over jailing of a trade union leader of SP KAHUTINDO, a BWI affiliate. 
 
Sister Nurimah, a KAHUTINDO plant level chairperson at the San Yu Frame Moulding company in Semarang, was detained on 9 December and is still being held at a state prison in Bulu, Semarang, for an alleged assault charge from June 2006. Her arrest conveniently comes at a time when the KAHUTINDO branch was pressing for its first negotiation with the wood-products manufacturer. 
<img src="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/1101.indonesia.bwi.jpg" width="180" height="135" alt=""/>
In June 2009, 434 of the company’s 700 workers registered for KAHUTINDO representation. A series of union actions had forced the company to the bargaining table, but BWI believes the arrest of Nurimah has been orchestrated by management to intimidate workers and halt bargaining.

The lockout by U.S. Steel against 900 active workers and 9,000 retirees and widows at a steel mill in Hamilton, Ontario, gained national Canadian attention on 29 January when over 10,000 trade unionists assembled and manifested in wet snow in Hamilton. Some 75 busloads of citizens came to what’s known in Canada as “Steeltown,” angry at their government and manifesting under the slogan “The People vs. U.S. Steel.” 
View video footage of the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FAb_uR-UFv0">Hamilton Rally</a>. 
 
The Hamilton Day of Action for locked-out members of United Steelworkers (USW) Local 1005 served as a national rallying cry against the government of Prime Minister Stephen Harper. Harper and other parliamentarians have failed to make accountable foreign multinationals which buy Canadian assets and then immediately furlough workers and cut living standards. 
 
Both the Ontario Federation of Labour (OFL/CLC) and the Canadian Labour Congress (CLC) lent heavy support in making 29 January this rallying cry, as well as national signal that this unprovoked lockout marks undeniably that Canadian investment law is deeply flawed.

The day’s speeches, placards, and slogans stated just that that. Local 1005 is defending workers, retirees, and widows against an American predator that three years ago bought Ontario-based steelmaker Stelco but immediately began side-stepping a weakened Investment Canada Act. The OFL claims that contrary to provisions in the Investment Canada Act, U.S. Steel has cut 2,200 jobs Stelco jobs in Hamilton and the Nanticoke Works in those three years. 
 
One of the main speakers of the day, USW President Leo Gerard, minced no words in describing the head-lock that corporations have on workers and governments: “Everywhere on earth, these corporate bastards are trying to pick our pockets. I’ll be damned if I’m going to stand by and let them take our pensions. We have to demand that Harper stand up for Canada.”

The Investment Canada Act is supposed to provide a “net benefit” to Canadians when foreign ownership acquires Canadian-based assets. Steelworkers of Local 1005, along with retirees and widows from the Hamilton Works, made the strong statement Saturday that they are victims, thrown off their jobs because they refuse to have their rightful benefits stripped from them.
The U.S. Steel lockout, now beginning its 13th week, centers on the company’s demand that retirees and widows lose pension indexing calculations, a sum meant to meet inflation costs amounting to C$30 per year, depending on different pension levels. U.S. Steel also wants to close off the defined benefit plan for new workers, certainly no “net benefit” to young Canadian workers.

Bus-loads of loyal steelworkers from Quebec arrived and made USW Local 1005 supporters proud that such national unity crosses provincial boundaries. Buses of steelworkers also came from Sudbury, Ontario, where a foreign multinational also has slashed jobs and living standards, as well as from U.S. Steel’s Great Lakes mill in the US state of Michigan. 
 
Union delegations turned out in full from the Canadian Autoworkers’ Union (CAW), Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE), and the Service Employees International Union (SEIU). The OFL and CLC led the larger call across Canada. Scores of trade union delegations from teachers’ unions, to the Ontario Public Service Union, to ICEM-affiliated Power Workers Union (PWU) and the Communications, Energy, Paperworkers (CEP) Union also lent their support.

Bill Mahoney
Hamilton Mayor Bob Bratina, an outspoken critic of U.S. Steel’s conduct in his city, spoke at Saturday’s “The People vs. U.S. Steel” manifestation, as did MP Chris Charlton, the leading national politician currently out to refine the Investment Canada Act. Other speakers included CLC President Ken Georgetti, OFL President Sid Ryan, and Bill Mahoney, a victim himself who has put to words what Local 1005’s fightback symbolises. 
 
Called the “Protest Poet,” Mahoney has been retired from Stelco’s Hamilton Works for five works and has penned some 25 poems on social erosion. One, entitled “Scrooge Comes to Town,” reads: 
We are fighting for our dignity, united young and old 
All across the country, the story is being told 
Of our proud community whose dignity won’t be sold 
We are fighting for our country, Canada is our home.

ICEM Colombian affiliate Sintracarbón averted a strike last week at the world’s largest set of coal mines, and accepted a two-year labour accord with Carbones del Cerrejón, the producer of rich thermal coal from La Guajira state that is owned jointly by AngloAmerican, BHP Billiton, and Xstrata. 
 
In a statement, the ICEM praised the new contract, calling it a result of respectful social dialogue, a process set in place with ICEM assistance back in 2004. The economic stakes counting down to a planned 8 February by 4,200 Sintracarbón members were so high that Colombia Vice President Angelino Garzón and Vice Minister of Labour Relations Ricardo Echeverry brokered final talks. 
 
The two-year labour accord between the mining union and Cerrejón calls for a first-year wage increase of 6.5%, retroactive to 1 January 2011, and a 2012 increase of the greater between 5% or 2% above the Consumer Price Index. 
<img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/1102.sintracarbon.jpg" width="232" height="174"/>
But more importantly, Sintracarbón continued to make improvements at the bargaining table for the communities surrounding the massive coal complex and tangible gains for over 5,500 contract workers employed at Carbones del Cerrejón and Puerto Bolivar, the company’s deep-water port 150 kilometres from the mine. 
 
The union recorded improvements in health benefits for workers and their families, transportation stipends to reach medical care, education and scholarships for family members, and an increase in the number of housing loans for workers. 
 
Cerrejón stood firm on a first-year wage offer of 6% but following a 27 January strike ballot in which workers voted 96.4% for industrial action, the company first raised its offer to 6.3% and then 6.5% in mediation in Bogotá with the Vice President. 
<img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/People/Manfred Warda PREFERRED.jpg" width="120" height="119"/>
ICEM General Secretary Manfred Warda
“We have witnessed both sides reach the brink of negotiations in the past several sets of two-year talks,” said General Secretary Manfred Warda in the ICEM statement. “The fact that Sintracarbón and Cerrejón have not had a strike in over 20 years is testament to mutual respect and shared responsibility by both the union and management in looking after the welfare of communities, workers, and their families.” 
 
The ICEM congratulates the union members of Sintracarbón for mobilising for job action and then winning a deserved 2011 pay increase of 6.5%, better than double Colombia’s current 3.19% CPI. The ICEM notes that Cerrejón is a highly profitable enterprise for the parent companies, as well as for Colombia, which exported 76 million tonnes of coal in 2010 – 31 million tonnes of which was generated by the members of Sintracarbón.

Some 1,600 American trade union and environmental leaders met in Washington, D.C., last week in a historic, three-day BlueGreen Alliance conference that concluded on 10 February with visits to US legislators urging a green industrial future for America. 
 
The BlueGreen Alliance Foundation, formed in 2006 between the United Steelworkers (USW) and the Sierra Club, has now grown to include eight US unions, several environmental organisations, and a handful of trade groups. 
 
The 2011 “Good Jobs, Green Jobs National Conference” featured US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) Administrator Lisa Jackson as keynote speaker, and consisted of many workshops, including one entitled “11 Workers Killed and the Worst Environmental Disaster Ever; How Do We Respond to the Deepwater Horizon Explosion?” 
<img src="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/1102.good jobs green jobs.jpg" width="246" height="71" alt=""/>
A familiar chord throughout the conference was how to compete against trading nations such as China and Germany that have developed better industrial policies concerning green technologies. Participants took that question, demanding legislative solutions, to lawmakers on Capitol Hill in Washington. 
 
USW President Leo Gerard opened the conference by urging delegates to push leaders of both US political parties to act in the long-term interests of the US. Another pair of themes weaved throughout the conference is that clean energy does create jobs, and good jobs and achievement of a safe environment are mutually inclusive. 
 
BlueGreen Alliance Executive Director Dave Foster said the participants at last week’s conference, who represent 8.5 million American workers, “are willing to answer President Obama's call to out-build, out-educate, and out-innovate to win the future. 
 
“Congress,” he added, “must (now) get moving on critical policies that build a healthy and prosperous America.”

The ICEM applauds the unity and successful coordination of Colombian trade unions, in the launch of a new daily radio programme for workers, called "Contacto Social." Included in the grouping of 12 unions were ICEM affiliates Sintraelecol and USO. The process was supported locally by ICEM’s country coordinator Carlos Bustos. 
 
The daily programme has now been broadcasting since 1 February, Monday to Friday, in the areas around Bogotá, Cundinamarca, Boyacá, Meta, and Tolima, and is also available globally online. The organizers of the project plan to expand its reach in the future and become a major media tool in Colombia, communicating views to workers, and supplying an outlet to those whose voices cannot otherwise be heard. 
<img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/Colombiaflag.gif" width="150" height="99"/>
Trade unionists and supporters are encouraged to call and join the on-air debate at +57 4176970 
 
One story that was reported today on "Contacto Social" is the Colombian national Labour center CUT organising a workers' picket at the office of the Vice President, ahead of a high-level meeting with the ILO. 
Unions in the South American country demand that Colombia be re-added to the list of countries evaluated by the ILO's Committee of Experts. CUT President Tarsicio Mora decried the continuing dangers facing trade unionists in Colombia, where 46 were murdered in 2010 and three so far this year. There are currently over 40 labour disputes ongoing, many caused by the erosion of labour rights and working conditions by employers.

ICEM’s two mine union affiliates in Ukraine played crucial roles in the ratification 15 February of ILO Convention 176 by the country’s Parliament, the Verkhovna Rada. <a href="/en/209-ILO " type="internal">Convention 176, the Safety and Health in Mines Convention</a>, is a major priority for the ICEM. 
 
Ukraine became the 25th country to ratify Convention 176 since 1995 and that was due mainly to the efforts of the Coal Industry Workers’ Union of Ukraine (PRUPU) and the Independent Trade Union of Miners of Ukraine. Leaders of both unions, Victor Turmanov and Mikhail Volynets, are members of the Rada. 
<img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/Victor Turmanov.jpg" width="115" height="115"/>
PRUPU's Victor Turmanov
Turmanov said the effort began in earnest in 2008 when the unions and Federation of Trade Unions of Ukraine (FPU) Chairman Vasyl Khara began meeting with federal coal industry officials, as well as with managing directors of mining enterprises. Khara was chairman of the Donetsk Region Council of Trade Unions. He is also an MP. 
 
A major barrier was broken when senior leaders of the Donetsk region’s coal to electric energy company, DTEK, agreed to support ratification, after Coal Industry Minister Viktor Poltavets –a one-time mining engineer at Sverdlov Anthracite – agreed to the global Convention. 
 
“We took an important step in ratification because it will provide a more holistic approach to mine health and safety in Ukraine,” said Turmanov. “This will strengthen protection for miners, toughen the responsibilities placed on employers, and finally place national precedence on mine safety issues.” 
<img alt="" src="/sites/default/files/migration/icem/Volynets Mikhail - UKRAINE.jpg" width="90" height="133"/>
Mikhail Volynets, Independent Trade Union of Miners
Volynets said most Ukrainian mines have antiquated equipment and use old technologies, and he said implementation of Article 7 of Convention 176 will be important in Ukraine. Article 7’s nine provisions refer to an employer’s responsibility to minimize all risks in mining, including such standards that two exits of separate egress must come from underground mines. 
 
Volynets said Ukraine’s coal mining industry is the world’s second most hazardous behind China, and Ukraine is home to thousands of illegal mines. “It is critically important for Ukrainian unions, with ICEM support, to address the issue of illegal mines in ILO committees,” said Volynets. 
 
“But, in fact, every mine whether state-owned or private has its own violations or infractions of safe mining and that should get solved in implementing Convention 176 here.” 
 
Convention 176 will take full effect in 12 months in Ukraine, with the expectation that the country’s national laws on mine safety will get updated to comply with global standards. 
 
The Convention spells out responsibilities for government, employers, and workers and their trade unions, and specifically gives miners the right to report hazards, dangerous conditions and accidents, as well as the right to refuse unsafe work. 
 
For employers, Convention 176 places responsibility on them to not only remove workplace hazards, but remove the causes of those hazards. The Convention also mandates that employers provide adequate safety training programmes to workers and ensure a regular routine of occupational health surveillance of miners. 
 
Of vital importance, the Convention gives workers and their trade unions participation in inspections and accident investigations, and allows workers to select their own safety and health representatives in full partnership with employers and governmental regulatory bodies. 
 
Ukraine is the first major mining country to ratify Convention 176 since Peru ratified it in June 2007.

The International Textile, Garment, Leather Workers’ Federation (ITGLWF) congratulated its regional Asia structure TWARO and Cambodian affiliate C.CADWU for successfully restoring the jobs of 19 trade union leaders and 142 other workers at garment sweatshops of Goldfame Enterprises. 
 
The ITGLWF reports that its Cambodian independent trade union affiliate C.CADWA signed a Memorandum of Agreement with Goldfame that resolves outstanding issues following a general strike by Cambodian garment workers in September 2010. 
 
In an agreement aimed at promoting workplace cooperation in industrial relations, Hong Kong-based Goldfame agreed to reinstate the 19 leaders and 142 other union members at a meeting hosted by the ILO, witnessed by the ITGLWF, TWARO, and C.CADWU, as well as by Goldfame buyers Inditex and H&M. 
 
Efforts in Cambodia will continue, the ITGLWF states, to persuade other employers to follow Goldfame’s lead and restore the jobs of workers who were discriminatively sacked during the wave of September 2010 mass strikes. The ITGLWF states that another 63 trade union leaders and 77 supporters in 14 factories deserve their dignified return to work.
