Protest sackings in Panama

Security giant Group 4 Securicor has sacked 40 of its workers after they protested the transfer of hundreds of workers to a different corporate entity, which resulted in many long-term workers losing benefits. Last year, Group 4 Securicor attempted similar attacks on its workers in Jakarta, but after security guards who were illegally sacked camped outside the company's headquarters and thousands of people around the world sent messages of protest, Group 4 Securicor was forced to rehire the workers.
