Workers at Champ Resto, one of Indonesia’s leading fast food chains, only learned that they had not been enrolled in the legally mandatory government health insurance program for employees and their families when a worker's new-born baby died after being refused hospital treatment.The father of the new-born child, who had worked at Champ Resto for fourteen years, was fired for missing 5 days' work while the family mourned the death of their child.The IUF-affiliated hotel and restaurant workers federation FSPM called on Champ Resto to comply with the law. The company responded by immediately dismissing 83 union members and harassing and transferring others.
The union continues to hold weekly demonstrations to demand reinstatement of the dismissed workers, full respect for trade union rights and the inclusion of all company workers and their families in the government health insurance scheme.
