Striking workers from Walmart’s largest distribution center in Elwood, IL were reinstated this week — at full pay — three weeks after Walmart subcontractor Roadlink suspended them in retaliation for a petition requesting better working conditions and a living wage, according to Chicagoist.com. Truthout.Org adds that management has also provided workers with requested safety provisions, including shin guards, and fans for cooling the warehouse, where temperatures sometimes reach as high as 120 degrees. Over 600 people came to deliver a petition with over 100,000 signatures, and show support for the striking workers at a demonstration on October 2nd, which was also attended by police in riot gear.
