Miners Union of Lovia

The Miners Union of Lovia was founded in 1956 by overworked miner Jeremy H. Miller. He quit his job at the Hurbanova Mining beacuse of the "overworked, underpaid and uncositional" working conditions of the mines. Jeremy stated that current mining director Close Hrád took out 1,378 life insucrance polices on workers that had died during his reign as Director of Hurbanova Mining. In 1957 the union grew to 2,000 Lovians the union sued Hurbanova Mining on 26 accounts including, Racial Discrimination, un-healthy work conditions and other serious charges. 120 miners were fired which also fired up the lawsuit. The case took an enitre year to settle in which the union and workers won 5.2 Million dollars. Hrád was fired three days later. Hurbanova Mining for the first, time the union voted to elect Director Ronald Ealdeast who highered the minium wage by a dollar and a-half form two dollars to three-fifty. Ronald was elected to five two year terms but the Hurbanova Mining found out that he wrongfully rigged the vote. He was moved out of office one year later in 1967. The "facts" that Hurbanova Mining found were later found to be fake in 1980. The mine later re-voked the unions voting right in late 1967. In 1965 the Emerald Highlands Miners Comapny or EHMC was founded the company also faced a lawsuit like Hurbanova Mining for bad health conditions and bad work pay, the union and workers won only 1 million dollars out of 33 million dollars even though the mine failed 49 health and work condiditons. The EHMC in 1974 cut 500 out of there 2000 workforce for short-term profits and worked the re-maining workers twice as hard. The union sued for unemployment and wrongfully firing them. The jobs were not saved but won only 3000 dollars for 500 workers. In 1972 a small mine called the Lovian state mine was sued by the union for 6 million dollars but had a plea bargin for 2 million dollars. In 1980 the Hurbanova Mining layed-off 200 workers in a three day lawsuit the union saved 10 jobs and got the worker there director voting rights back.
