Documents Reveal Extent of Exploitation at Chinese Tire Site in Serbia

Serbia beat off competition from around Central and Eastern Europe to host the first Chinese tyre factory in Europe, but evidence obtained by NGOs and BIRN point to ‘systematic exploitation’ – potentially human trafficking – of hundreds of Vietnamese men hired to build it. Serbian authorities say they see nothing wrong.

Kim’s pursuit of a decent wage has taken him from the Vietnamese city of Vinh, some 300 kilometres south of the capital, Hanoi, to a hostel in Zrenjanin, a town in northern Serbia. But it’s not working out as he and hundreds of other Vietnamese workers planned.

Serbian NGOs blew the whistle this month on the exploitation and possible human trafficking of Vietnamese workers hired to build the first Chinese car tyre factory in Europe, alleging that their passports had been confiscated and they had been housed in dirty, cramped dormitories with two toilets for 500 men and a lack of clean, warm water.

Amid the outcry, the workers were moved to temporary accommodation in Zrenjanin, but their troubles are far from over.

The terms of their contracts, signed with a subcontractor of China’s Shandong Linglong Tire Co and seen by BIRN, violate a raft of rules under Serbian labour law, from working-hours to vacation days and financial penalties.

Many want to go home, but cannot afford the cost of the flight home, which they are obliged to cover if they leave early.

“These are all indicators that suggest this is a case of human trafficking,” said Danilo Curcic, programme coordinator at the Initiative for Economic and Social Rights, A11, an NGO that visited the workers’ accommodation along with anti-trafficking organisation ASTRA.

The Serbian government, which frequently courts foreign investors with generous subsidies and, in the case of Linglong, free land, says inspectors have found nothing wrong, describing the Linglong construction site as “the most monitored in Serbia.”

Curcic said the government’s inaction raised the question – “to what extent our country is involved in this chain of labour exploitation and potentially human trafficking?”

Kim, who spoke on condition his real name not be published, told BIRN: “We are very poor in Vietnam and we came here to earn money for our family. But the Chinese contractors have no respect for our work or our lives.”
