Expel the regime from the ILO

Bahram Soroush’s speech at the ILO Conference
12 June 2006

Unfortunately Iranian workers are not represented at this conference. So I am honoured to be bringing their voice to this conference. As you may know, various sections of Iranian workers have written to the Director-General of the ILO, Mr Juan Somavia, to say that the so-called “workers’ delegation” from Iran does not represent Iranian workers; that these people are members of the Iranian government’s Islamic Labour Councils and Workers’ House, which are state-sponsored bodies, charged with workers’ surveillance and repression.

One of the delegates at this conference, Ali Akbar Eivazi, personally led a vicious attack last year on the office of Tehran’s bus workers’ union, inflicting serious injuries on Mr Ossanlou, the president of that union, and many other unionists.Mr Ossanlou is still in prison, after nearly six months, for trying to build a union. In January, nearly 1,000 bus drivers and workers in Tehran were arrested and jailed for going on strike. In Iran you are arrested for trying to form labour organisations and for going on strike. Just a couple of months ago, over 50 workers of Iran Khodro car-manufacturing company were fired for going on strike.
