Denmark's Former Prime Minister calls for the Dutch Group 4 Falck's Wackenhut security company to recognize a union: In a letter to Group 4 Falck Chief Executive Lars Norby Johansen, he said the evidence shows "that Wackenhut prevents the forming of a union among their employees through selective firing, completely against ILO conventions". He also said the evidence shows that "Wackenhut doesn't treat employees according to the standards for wages and working conditions that is normal for American corporations working with security. For instance Wackenhut employees have to pay their own health insurance which is accounting for one week's salary every month."
