Workers at Iran’s Kiyan Tire Resume Strike Action

Employees at Iran’s Kiyan Tire have gone on strike for a second time this year due to pay related disputes with the factory’s management. The striking workers have threatened not to return to work until management meets their demands. This latest action echoes strike action on April 13, in which workers that had not been paid for several months burned used tyres to block the highway between Tehran and the city’s western suburbs.
