Esther’s story

This is Esther’s story. Esther had hoped that her son Britto getting a job at Pond’s company would mean good days for the family. However, it was not to be. Britto developed health problems while working in the thermometer factory and never recovered. Eventually, both his kidneys failed and Britto died, leaving behind parents who are aged and struggling to sustain. Esther, to this day, lives with the regret of having sent her son to work there. Esther’s son was one of the many victims poisoned by Unilever’s mercury.
