Protesters March on B of A Headquarters: About 1,000 unionists representing bank workers in more than 100 countries marched in front of Bank of America’s downtown San Francisco headquarters to protest the big bank’s labor policies worldwide. Efforts to organize B of A employees have been stifled by “harassment and intimidation” on the part of the bank’s management, contended Philip J. Jennings, general secretary of the International Federation of Commercial, Clerical, Professional & Technical Employees, a Geneva-based union with 10 million members.
