Support Lane Walker Rudkin Workers

The receivers of textile and apparel maker Lane Walker Rudkin announced last Friday (May 15 2009) that 186 clothing workers in Christchurch and the Wairarapa would be made redundant.

The workers have been thrown out with no notice, and no money: the workers may see their last wage payments, but there is no guarantee they will see their holiday or redundancy pay.

If LWR in receivership cannot guarantee the holiday and redundancy pay owing to these workers, then Westpac and the Government need to do something more concrete to help the workers affected.
