Poverty wages, brutal conditions, crippling injuries--5,500 workers in Tar Heel, North Carolina face this every day at the world's largest hog processing plant. Cited by Human Rights Watch for violating international human rights standards, Smithfield Packing has created an environment of intimidation, racial tension, and sometimes violence for workers who want a voice on the job.

On August 29, Jobs with Justice will join hundreds of supporters at the Smithfield Foods Annual Shareholder's Meeting to show oursupport for Smithfield workers. We will present this petition to Smithfield executives to demonstrate America's support forworkers at Smithfield's Tar Heel, North Carolina plant.
