More than 100 immigrant farmworkers, who are organised within the syndicate of
immigrant workers (SOI) are on strike for an unlimited period. Amongst other things they claim better working conditions and a regularisation of all "sin papeles".

The strike takes place in the region of JAEN, which is
well known for its intensive olive- production.

The workers point out that it is very useful to come
and support their strike by making it public and
visible. furthermore, they have opened a strike-
account to buy food, blankets and medicaments in order
to hold up the strike:
Caja Rural de Jaén (España) - account number:
3067-0122-61-2154827816

the strike has been supported by 1500 signatures from
inhabitants of Jaen.
