36 days on the picket line - South African workers need your help now

Three thousand members of South Africa's Food and Allied Workers' Union (FAWU) have been on strike since December 22 at SAB Miller's soft drinks division ABI.

They are demanding better wages and scheduling and an end to the spread of precarious work.

Their global union federation, the IUF, has just launched an online campaign to support them.

You can support their struggle -  to send a message to the company, click here.  And to learn more about the issues, click here.

Thanks very much.
