Dear .....,
Please forward this e mail to other interpretere asking for their input, should they have any info about the subject.
Mr. ......, the .... Interpreter has suggested that the Interpreters issue is an issue of Human Rights. My understanding is that he believes that Interpreters have been put in this position (wages, conditions of work, rights and benefits or lack of rights and benefits..etc) because, among other reasons, they are predominantly of third world origin. They have been subjected to systemic discrimination, deprived of any right to negotiate, their association's requests to communicate with the ministry were ignored, they were asked humiliating questions -about their test results and accreditation- in the court room, in public, that deprived them of respect and self esteem.
This is just an introduction to start debate that may take this idea to fruition. This may lead to court case in the human rights tribunal. What do you think. Let us talk before you take any written action. Thanks.
