"Violation of labor rights at Myanmar Sunway Shoes shoe factory" 20 April 2023
...The workers of the Myanmar Sunway Shoes shoe factory in the expanded industrial zone, Baengyul Road, Mung Tain Ward are reported to be losing their labor rights due to discrimination.
The factory is operating with about 200 workers...If the workers take medical leave, they call and force them to come to work during their sick leave.
"...Casual leave is also missing," said a worker at the factory.
[Th]is factory [supplies], LABEL -JSK/(Jessica)/PAH/MUJI/Fanpu/H&M...the [workers] are slandered...and discriminated against...
The workers said that since the workers went to ask [about the] reduction of seniority leave... they have discriminated and slandered [by the supervisors]...
... According to a worker who works at the factory, the owners or managers of the business do not give them permission to take casual leave, and the factory does not explain to the workers how to take the leave.
As the factory does not have a medical room or nurse planned for the workers, the workers have to spend their own money to buy medical supplies...
