Workers at CTD Nesdale, a Foodstuffs-owned chilled and frozen food distribution centre in South Auckland, have walked off the job for a second time.
The workers are calling on their employers to do more to ensure temporary workers, or "temps", receive decent employment conditions.
A similar strike action was taken last month, where staff demanded secure employment for the hundreds of labour-hire workers engaged by the company.
FIRST Union organiser Lisa-Meto Fox said the labour-hire workers were being exploited.
Ms Fox said their contracts did not comply with law, and that they'd made complaints to Foodstuffs, and Recruitment and Consulting Services Association, the body representing labour-hire agencies, but nothing had changed.
She said the highly profitable company, owned by the owners of PaknSave and New World supermarkets, "promote that they're New Zealand owned, but don't want to comply with New Zealand law".
She said workers at Countdown had far superior working conditions.
The workers walked off the job at around 3pm on Friday and will not be returning until next week.
