Since September 23 workers at HEPCO ( Haft - Tapeh Sugar cane  ) company stopped going to work in protest against the lay off of 20 of their co workers and privatization of the company. 

Its been for almost 12 years that these workers face numerous injustices including no job security , unexpected lay off , delay in payments and so many other issues which impacts their family life so much. 

In recent years the Government chose to transfer the company to private ownership which increased the problems of the company and workers . 

Because of all these problems, the workers at Haft Tapeh made many strike and protests including one in front of the Shoosh Governor's building and their march in the city . 

In their recent protests which is still going on , the security forces summoned 40 workers for questioning and they are threatened to be expelled from work. 

The workers continue their protest as i am writing this note....

See how this regime treat the Iranian workers when they ask for their unpaid salaries ......
