Right now sacked workers are standing outside DHL warehouses in Turkey resisting unfair dismissals.  The workers report that in 2012 over 20 of them have been dismissed for attempting to organise a union. They also say that DHL management continues to approach them telling them that they must resign from the union or they will lose their jobs. More here >>
