Imagine what it would be like to work in a plant where summertime temperatures reach 100 degrees -- and not being able to get a drink of water.
That's what workers at Smithfield Foods' pork-packing plant in Tar Heel, North Carolina are experiencing. In that plant, the water fountains don't work, and the only water they get is dragged through waste and guts from slaughtered hogs before it reaches them.
19 workers at the Tar Heel plant have stood up and demanded clean and safe water for all workers there -- and they need your help to get it. Call the Tar Heel plant today at (910) 862-7675 and ask for Vice President Larry Johnson. Tell him just how shameful it is that a company in 21st century America provides working conditions that sound like a 19th century horror story.
