Just as these strikers are fighting for all poor and working people, so is the companyâs strikebreaking being carried out for the billionaires and banksters.

The 1,400 workers on strike against Kelloggâs since Oct. 5 are fighting for all workers. Members of the Bakery, Confectionery, Tobacco Workers and Grain Millers International Union (BCTGM) are battling the companyâs two-tier system of wages and benefits.
The cereal killers who run Kelloggâs donât believe in equal pay for equal work. Newly hired workers â called âtransitional employeesâ by the company â are paid around $12 dollars less per hour than âregularâ full-time workers but have to pay more for health insurance. Forget about pensions.
