| A worker and his wife celebrate
the presence of the "grupo movel" in the farm where they had been
living and working, making charcoal. Even when workers are not kept in completely
miserable conditions, even if they are not impeded to leave by the farmer's
gunmen, they often welcome the grupo movel's presence because they know
that their legal rights will be guaranteed. In places like this farm the
workers are kept in degrading conditions without holidays, breaks, sanitation,
drinking water, proper food and from their salaries the manager deducts
the costs of everything, from tools to food. So when the grupo movel analyses
their situation, they always receive fair amounts of cash related to the
time they worked in irregular conditions. |
