"Quitting employees are being cut without full pay", 25 April 2024

[...]

The workers said that they are suffering from a bad situation because the workers who quit their jobs have not been paid the full salary that they are supposed to be paid.

The worker said that...[workers at] LAT WAR (3) COMPANY LIMITED garment factory opened in Hlaing Thayar Township Industrial Zone 2, Yangon Province...[are] having a hard time because the workers who quit their jobs have not been paid in full.

KAPALUA, REGATA, and MAVI...are major brand companies [sourcing from the factory], and although there is a labor coordination committee in the workplace, they are unable to resolve the violation.

...[the] workers who quit their jobs were paid 4,800 kyats as a day allowance and 10,000 kyats as an overtime allowance...

The worker said, "I'm being exploited. I work to death...I quit my job. I'm not able to pay for my family's food...The amount cut by the employer due to the factory's salary system is nothing. But for the workers, it's a very important amount to eat and live," the worker said...

The factory with more than 500 workers is sewing protective industrial products...

When they try to quit their jobs, they don't get full wages in the workplaces of industrial zones. In addition to the low wages, due to the effects of the military service law, it is no longer easy to work and eat, so many people are leaving the workplace.
