The U.S. has asked Mexico to review whether employees at a Grupo Mexico (OTCPK:GMBXF) mine are being denied the right of free association and collective bargaining, the U.S. Trade Representative’s office said Friday.
The USTR said it received a request from unions in the U.S. and Mexico that alleged Grupo Mexico (OTCPK:GMBXF) had resumed operations at the San Martin mine in Zacatecas despite an ongoing strike and engaged in collective bargaining with a group of workers despite the fact that the Los Mineros union holds the right to represent workers.
U.S. Trade Representative Katherine Tai has directed the Secretary of the Treasury to suspend the final settlement of customs accounts related to the entries of goods from the San Martin mine, a USTR statement said; Mexico has 10 days to agree to conduct a review and, if it agrees, 45 days to complete it.
