Myanmar: Garment workers threatened after filing complaint over mandatory overtime; incl. co. responses
In February 2024, it was reported that workers at Asdet Garment are facing a series of violations, including mandatory overtime, with workers threatened to work overnight and sleep at the factory, unpaid overtime for day labourers, verbal abuse and threats towards workers after someone had filed a complaint about the overtime situation to the labour office, workers feeling tired and having no time to cook or rest because of the overtime.
In September 2024, Business & Human Rights Resource Centre invited Etam Groupe (for its brand Undiz), LIDL (for its Esmara brand) and Footmark to respond. LIDLs's response can be found below. Etam Groupe and Footmark did not respond.
