On January 21, 2021 Norwegian company Yara, one of the world’s largest suppliers of mineral fertilizers and one of the key clients of the Belarusian Potash Company, published another press release.
„Yara has a strong commitment to the universal human rights agenda including the right to strike and backs the UN High Commissioner for Human Rights in her condemnation of human right abuses in Belarus...
Yara´s main concern remains the health, safety and well-being of Belaruskali workers“.
Yara acknowledged that the steps announced by Belaruskali to improve the situation and to re-employ the workers are positive, but it will expect Belaruskali to further refrain from repression of employees. Yara stated that it will continue to engage with all key stakeholders, as it continuously evaluates it´s position.
