劳工部：墨西哥Alimentos Grole案结案 9名被解雇工人复职补薪
美国劳工部（DOL）国际劳工事务局11月6日宣布，美国依据《美墨加协定》（USMCA）针对墨西哥Sonora州Ciudad Obregón的Alimentos Grole工厂提起的快速反应劳工机制（RRM）案件已经成功结案。此前该厂工人指称，他们的结社自由与集体谈判权遭到侵害。
劳工部说，美国与墨西哥此前商定的整改方案已经落实，审查中提出的权利受侵害问题已经得到纠正。因此，美国贸易代表办公室（USTR）已经指示财政部长恢复对该厂未清算货物入境的清算程序。劳工部国际劳工事务局、美国贸易代表办公室与墨西哥政府共同推动了这项解决方案。
工厂方面采取的整改措施包括：按工人各自意愿，让9名被违法解雇的工人复职并补发全部欠薪与福利，另向2名工人支付全额遣散费；解散与公司立场一致的内部劳工委员会，并承诺今后不再利用、鼓励或支持组建此类委员会；制定厂区准入规则，保障Sonora州食品业工会SITIES行使其权利；重组人力资源与劳资关系管理部门，并对侵犯工人权利的相关人员作出纪律处理。工厂还对全体员工开展了中立声明与结社自由准则培训，设立可匿名保密举报的投诉机制，并在厂内会议与公告中向工人说明此前发生的权利侵害事实。
墨西哥政府方面承诺持续监督该厂履行整改方案及墨西哥劳工法律的情况，面向全体工人开展面对面的权利培训，另行培训主管与人力资源人员，并维持匿名举报邮箱、平台与电话热线，及时调查相关指控。
此案源于2025年7月29日：隶属SITIES的一批现任与前任工人向美方跨部门劳工委员会提交申诉，指称工厂通过威胁和解雇工人压制工会活动，并组建、扶持与公司立场一致的内部工会。委员会审查后认定有充分可信的证据显示权利遭到侵害，美国遂于2025年8月28日请墨西哥审查；墨西哥2025年10月10日认定该厂确有权利侵害情形，随后两国商定整改方案并由美方监督执行。劳工部介绍，快速反应劳工机制是在特朗普首个任期内创设的贸易工具，旨在处理与美国贸易竞争的墨西哥工厂劳工执法薄弱问题，为美国工人与企业创造公平竞争环境。（来源：美国劳工部）
Labor Department: Alimentos Grole Case in Mexico Resolved, Nine Dismissed Workers Reinstated With Back Pay
WASHINGTON — The U.S. Department of Labor's Bureau of International Labor Affairs announced on November 6 that the United States has successfully resolved the facility-specific Rapid Response Labor Mechanism (RRM) matter under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) concerning the Alimentos Grole facility in Ciudad Obregón, Sonora, Mexico, where workers alleged they had been denied their freedom of association and collective bargaining rights.
The Department said a course of remediation agreed by the United States and Mexico has now been implemented, and the denial-of-rights concerns raised in the U.S. request for review have been remediated. As a result, the Office of the United States Trade Representative (USTR) has directed the Secretary of the Treasury to resume liquidation of unliquidated entries of goods from the facility. The Bureau of International Labor Affairs, USTR, and the Mexican government facilitated the resolution with the company.
Actions taken by the facility include reinstating nine unlawfully dismissed workers with full back pay and benefits and paying full severance to two workers, based on their respective preferences; disbanding the company-aligned internal labor committee and committing not to use or support any such committee in the future; developing a facility access protocol allowing the SITIES food-industry union of Sonora to exercise its rights; restructuring human resources and labor relations management and disciplining staff who violated workers' rights; training all personnel on its neutrality statement and freedom-of-association guidelines, including a zero-tolerance policy; informing workers of the denial of rights through meetings and posted notices; and installing an anonymous, confidential complaint mechanism.
The Government of Mexico will monitor the facility's compliance with the remediation course and Mexican labor law, conduct in-person rights training for workers and separate training for supervisors and human resources personnel, and maintain an anonymous reporting email address, platform, and telephone line, investigating allegations in a timely manner.
The case began on July 29, 2025, when a group of current and former Alimentos Grole workers affiliated with SITIES petitioned the Interagency Labor Committee for Monitoring and Enforcement, alleging the company threatened and dismissed workers to discourage union activity and formed a company-aligned internal union. The committee found sufficient, credible evidence of a denial of rights; the United States asked Mexico to review the matter on August 28, 2025, and Mexico concluded on October 10, 2025, that a denial of rights had occurred. The two governments then agreed on the remediation course, which the United States monitored. The Labor Department said the RRM, developed under the first Trump administration, is a trade tool designed to level the playing field for American workers and businesses by addressing weak labor law enforcement in Mexican workplaces that compete in trade with the United States.
