DESCRIPTION:Struggles for Health Care Workers and Health Care Rights in Turkey\n\nA 
 talk by Tufan Sertlek,\nGeneral Secretary of the Progressive Health Care 
 Workers' Union (Istanbul)\n\nTufan Sertlek is General Secretary of the 
 Devrimci Saglik Isçileri Sendikasi (Progressive Health Care Workers' 
 Union), a national trade union of 6,300 members based in Istanbul.\n\nWhile 
 the Progressive Health Care Workers' Union takes up a wide range of 
 economic and political struggles of health care workers in Turkey, it is 
 now focusing its attention on contract workers.  Contract workers have been 
 growing in numbers, but until recently their rights and struggles have been 
 largely neglected by mainstream trade unions.  Mr. Sertlek has spent four 
 years in prison for his political struggles for social justice.  He and 
 other full-time and part-time leaders of the union work as unpaid 
 volunteers.\n\nTranslation will be provided\nSuggested donation: $5 - 10 
 (no one turned away for lack of funds)\n
