Mining - Liberia: Steel Town Blues For Yekepa

It is the end of another gruelling ten-hour day for Liberian workers renovating the rails over 250 kilometres of railroad...They work for a Brazilian-owned company Odebrecht which has been contracted by international steel giant ArcelorMittal...Labour Minister Kofi Woods says that rules for safeguarding the company's subcontracted workers were not established in the concession contract, and they are looking at standards compliance. "Serious issues include wages, working conditions, health and safety," he says. [also refers to Segal, security company contracted by ArcelorMittal]
