Information for this alert was provided by Maquila Solidarity Network On July 
12, Gildan Activewear, a Montreal-based T-shirt company, announced that it 
would close its El Progreso factory in Honduras on September 30, 2004, a 
decision that will leave 1,800 workers unemployed. This decision was completely 
unexpected considering that the company is currently under investigations by 
the Fair Labor Association (FLA) and Worker Rights Association (WRC) for labor 
rights violation.
