resistance process with Kamber respectful of Limter-Union. ---- Square Newspaper: Hi, are 
you primarily describe the working conditions in the company Adore Toy? Adore the 
circumstances in which workers were unionized? ---- Ertan Tekin: Hi I Ertan Tekin. Toy 
Adora was working as a computer operator. Shortly after being hired, I was 
Limter-i-Business Trade Union members. Once you start organizing a union, overtime cuts 
began to increase. As a result, when union members than 8 workers by bosses declared war 
against us. We have our rights become available, they did not give us the money to which 
you are entitled.

Camber Respectful: Completely arbitrary and irrelevant conditions remotely close was 
concerned with labor laws. Workers such as the abolition of the service on the other hand 
not be the shift from one side, the boss of the two lips of a process in which they lived 
every word is law. Then they were referring to our union members. Work were excluded 
because they are unionized workers wanted the rights of our friends after becoming a member.

Many workers laid off were removed in this process? What kind of justification put forward 
in the dismissal adore bosses?

KS: 8 They dismissed all but one of the workers who are members of our union. Grounds as 
faced by almost all workers, which put into practice the boss showed Article 25.

Can you describe the process of resistance? How did you decide to establish a resistance tent?

ET: First, on 17 February, they let me out here. On 19 February, with Limter-Union, we 
opened the tent in front of the tank resistance. The inside working of workers who came to 
the tent that we show solidarity with the bosses resistance status hazmedemeyip 5 workers 
have done more work. We were in front of Tuzla Adora toy store for 12 days. Resistance in 
13 days in Maslak, increasingly, there have established a resistance tent. Adore the most 
appropriate place to open the store to be in tents due to resistance Mall, we move our 
tent in front of the branches in Caddebostan. Here we make two-day hunger strike. What we 
hunger strike results in a lot of response from the public domain Adora boss offered us 18 
thousand pounds. We agree, of course. Because the proposal did not meet our right amount 
of meat. We decided to do it again on a hunger strike to achieve the ultimate goal more 
quickly at a later period. Unions indefinitely recyclable our president, we have begun a 
hunger strike to the term interchangeably. It was another meeting later. They offered 24 
thousand pounds at this time. But that did not meet our rights. We have decided to 
increase our actions.

Then you do not block the action of a shopping center in Istinye?

ET: First of all your friends with our workers and trade unions have decided to make a 
press release Istinye Park Shopping Mall. But actually enter into the store we had the 
idea of creating a community there. After entering into the general manager and the 
police, despite all the pressures Istinye We conducted our blocking action.

We crowded stores in solidarity with that as you well know. 4-hour blockade action, it 
enabled us to negotiate with the bosses. We leave there without getting our rights mention 
it, Adora boss agreed to all our demands, and we signed a protocol. We ended our action 
through our press releases in front of Istinye Park. More than 18 thousand pounds before 
in previous interviews, bosses say then they will give 24 thousand pounds, union 
compensation in the next meeting of the blocking action, overtime, wages, in total, 
including the notice and severance pay for the time we left the tent we reserve the right 
gave the 126 thousand pounds.

It seems that the blocking action performed that led directly to the result. Without 
jamming the legal requirements directly actions have reached a conclusion by.

KS: This double-sided struggle with decisions we make in our mind, not a state we operate 
according to our pleasure, of course. This is a must. None of the law appears to be in 
favor of workers uygulanmıyork, the boss, and every word that comes from the mouth of the 
subcontractor sayılıyork law, we know that not just any gains obtained by legal means. For 
example, Adora AmAyAcAklArdI workers receive at least three to three and a half years if 
they were just right to take legal action. But we see that the actual direct labor who 
bought the rights to action within 40 days.

Thank you for reading our newspaper transfer to the resistance process. Is there anything 
you want to add?

thank you on behalf of Limter-Union.
