Tyson Introduces Team Member Bill of Rights; Document Outlines Worker Rights, Benefits and Responsibilities

"In an effort to ensure workers understand their rights in the workplace, Tyson Foods has developed a new 'Team Member Bill of Rights,' company officials reported today. The document, which has been in development for several months, will be posted in all Tyson facilities throughout the country.

'This 'bill' reinforces the practices we've long supported and communicated at our plants,' said John Tyson, chairman and CEO of Tyson Foods. 'Our Team Members are the company's most valuable resource and we want to make sure they understand their rights, benefits and responsibilities.'"
