“They said that the workplace employs day laborers and forces them to [work for] 4,000 kyats for 10 hours and 30 minutes of work per day, and they do not receive social security and statutory leave days.”, 26 August 2022
At the Princess Power Garment garment factory, which was opened at Shwe Pookkan Industrial Zone, North Ukkala Township, Yangon Region, nearly 80 workers are forced to work as day laborers at a rate of 4,000 kyats per day (from 8:00 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.).
…the factory operates with more than 900 workers…
"Usually, day laborers are workers who have been working for 3 to 6 months. They do not receive social security benefits or vacation days. There are also child laborers in the factory, and there are violations and oppression," said a worker at the factory.
The workers of the factory said that there is no labor union organized in the factory and there is a loss of labor rights.
Day laborers with more than 3 months of experience are demanding that they be appointed as permanent employees, that the minimum wage be increased to 4,800 kyats, and that the same benefits as other workers be paid, that overtime wages be recalculated, and that they receive labor rights under the law.
