"Tainjin Fashion Milestone Factory Loses Benefits Despite Monthly Social Security Payment", 10 October 2024

Workers at Tainjin Fashion Milestone Co.,Ltd. (garment factory) say that workers are unable to access social security clinics because the factory does not issue social security cards, and instead have to pay a lot of money to get treatment at outside clinics...

Currently, there are pregnant women working in the factory, and they are having difficulty accessing medical care because they do not have social security cards.

A woman who had a miscarriage at work...[was] not issue[d] a welfare card, so she did not receive welfare benefits and only received three days off. Although the welfare law stipulates six weeks of leave for a miscarriage, the workers who had a miscarriage were not allowed to rest and were forced to work...

In addition, pregnant workers were forced to stand up and ride on the shuttle bus, the workers said...

Workers said that there are no EC contracts for workers who have worked for more than a year in the factory, and they are unable to ask the factory’s WCC for help in workplace violations.

“There are many people who have written to the WCC asking for help. It is not possible, and the negotiations with the WCC are not being implemented. I want to make this happen,” said a female worker.

The workers said they want the WCC to be re-elected and the results of the negotiations to be implemented.

The Tainjin Fashion Milestone factory is located at the corner of Seikkantha Road and Kanna Road in Shwe Lin Baan Industrial Zone, Hlaing Tharyar Township, and employs around 1,400 workers, producing clothes for the Sinsay and VERO MODA brands.
