“Letter from Tai Hong (Myanmar) Workers”, 14 February 2022
We are workers at Tai Hong (Myanmar.) Garment Co., LTD…
The factory's actions violate workers' rights as well as existing laws.
The following are some of the behaviors that are being used against factory workers.
Senior factory workers are being fired and [daily] workers are being hired. Unjustly raising standards under various pressures; Overtime pay (OT) is not paid at all if the requested standard is not met. Factory workers are discriminated against and recruited for overtime (OT)...Dismissal of ex-employees in consultation with various workplace leaders; If you want to take more than three days off from Social Security, you can be summoned to the office and threatened to deduct 8,000 kyat from your salary if you take a delivery ferry.
You will see clearly that these are violations of labor rights and existing laws. That is why we want this letter to be included in the letter to help workers' rights being violated.
