Tyson Foods Is Facing Backlash For Reportedly Firing American Workers And Hiring Asylum Seekers
Shoppers are boycotting Tyson Foods products after the company decided to close down their plants in Iowa, and other locations, leaving thousands of Americans without a job.
According to Daily Mail, Tyson has moved to hire asylum seekers who were sent to New York and other cities after entering the US, seeking to fill undesirable jobs amid a low unemployment rate of 3.9 percent.
The company reportedly already has about 42,000 immigrants on the team, in addition to its 120,000 US workforce. They want to add additional immigrants by cooperating with the Tent Partnership for Refugees, a nonprofit, among other efforts.
‘We would like to employ another 42,000 if we could find them,’ Garrett Dolan, who leads Tyson’s social efforts, said to Bloomberg recently.
In recent weeks, the company hired dozens of asylum seekers from Venezuela, Mexico, and Colombia at a job fair in New York City. They travelled to work at its poultry plant in Humboldt, Tennessee.
According to Dolan, asylum seekers fill the gaps at plants with a high turnover of staff — the company needs to fill 52,000 jobs this year.
