7月13日早上9点开始,雷士员工开始全国范围内的罢工。重庆、万州以及惠州的雷士员工纷纷拉起横幅,呼吁吴长江尽快回到公司,施耐德退出。重庆员工向政府提交请愿书,请求政府保障其利益,避免公司倒闭,工人失业。

From 21st Century Net:

7月12日,就在雷士照明经销商、重庆员工与公司高管进行谈判,要求吴长江回归的同时,雷士照明发家之地的惠州工厂也宣布将于13日进行大罢工。

雷士照明惠州总厂的员工告诉和讯网,惠州总厂目前有3000多人,都已经确定13日进行罢工。他们强调明天员工仍会到总厂,但不会工作,只为对抗公司目前的管理层。据了解,除该总厂外,雷士照明在惠州还有5个分厂,且各分厂中均已有人陆续罢工。

员工们表示,之所以要进行罢工,是因为吴长江辞任之后,他们的工作收入受到严重影响。他们向和讯网算了一笔帐:吴长江在位的时候,公司生意比较好生产,他们每个员工算上加班费每个月能赚2千多3千元;吴长江辞任之后,公司生意不景气,加班机会骤减,员工收入下降严重,每个月只能拿到一千多元。

员工们表示,公司新管理层对照明行业不熟悉且没有成熟渠道,要重新整合资源、开辟渠道需要很长时间,但员工们不能承受这么长时间的低收入。

据了解,雷士照明的中层管理者也希望吴长江回归,因为吴长江给予客户、经销商和员工的整体待遇都比较好。

另有未经证实的消息称,13日吴长江将会到惠州总厂,但尚不清楚其此行的具体行程和目的。
