Local 3204 - May 28, 2015 Rally

 

Local 3204 held a rally at the at&t Mobility Store in Buford, Georgia on Thursday May 28,2015 because the company discriminated against an employee due to him having Diabetes. The employee asked to be excused from work to go to the hospital, however his manager refused. He went to the hospital immediately after work and was admitted 4 days with 2 spent in the ICU. He nearly lost his life due to AT&T failing to excuse him from work. Upon his return to work he was terminated for his attendance. The company could have waived the 4 days absence giving the circumstances and chose not to.

The woman and man in plain clothes are the parents of the terminated employee and was standing in for him. He is doing better and has since found new employment and was unable to attend the rally.
