according to fast technology on september 7, wahaha group responded to the relevant online reports.denied the news of being sued by multiple former employees, the following is the specific response.

recently, some media outlets have been spreading false information about the grassroots trade union joint committee of hangzhou wahaha group co., ltd. (hereinafter referred to as the "trade union") by writing articles with keywords such as "wahaha rights protection committee litigation to protect rights" and "requiring employees to re-sign labor contracts".

the aforementioned media reports contained serious inaccuracies and caused great damage to the reputation of the trade union.

this union hereby solemnly declares:

1. the trade union has never heard of any information about the "wahaha rights protection committee" and has not received any information about any lawsuit filed by the so-called "wahaha rights protection committee". the public is advised to be cautious in identifying such information.

2. according to the trade union, the internal share repurchase of the employee shareholding association of hangzhou wahaha group co., ltd. was approved by the unanimous resolution of the member representative conference. the relevant agreement was voluntarily signed by the members of the shareholding association and is legal and valid. there is no situation that harms the members of the shareholding association.

3. regarding the equity transfer of xiaoshan shunfa, according to the trade union, it was a normal change of shareholders of xiaoshan shunfa. the equity transfer was legal and valid, in compliance with relevant laws and regulations, and was reviewed and confirmed by the industrial and commercial authorities. there was no special reason speculated by the outside world.

4. as a mass organization of employees, the trade union always adheres to the principle of respecting and protecting the legitimate rights and interests of employees and is willing to listen to the voices of employees.

at present, the management and work order of the trade union are normal. if there is a dispute, the trade union is willing to resolve it through negotiation, litigation, etc., and does not want to spread negative emotions by occupying public resources, which is obviously not conducive to solving the problem.

event review:

recent reports pointed out that several former employees and internal staff of wahaha group said,because wahaha group recently asked employees to re-sign labor contracts and buy back employee stock ownership shares at a lower price.

the direct trigger for the above-mentioned lawsuits is that since august 2024, employees of the wahaha group have been asked to terminate their contracts with the wahaha group and instead sign labor contracts with the hongsheng beverage group controlled by zong fuli. after the labor contracts were changed, the "dry stock dividends" enjoyed by employees in the wahaha group were completely cancelled. many employees are very worried that their future income cannot be guaranteed.

dozens of employees have recently initiated a class action lawsuit to protect their rights and have entered the judicial process, waiting for the court to formally accept the case.
