" Workers at Myanmar Bestex Garment garment factory face difficulties due to forced payment of OT fees", 28 March 2022
Workers at the Myanmar Bestex Garment factory are facing difficulties as their employers force them to work overtime without paying OT…
"The working hours are limited to eight hours. If they do not meet the [target] during that time, they have to work overtime. They do not pay OT. They have to work late at night for free," said a factory worker.
There are many labor rights violations at Myanmar Bestex Garment, but there is no union to complain to the workers.
"There is no legal leave in the workplace, and [there is] daily harassment," said one worker, who spoke on condition of anonymity…
Workers want an end to this labor rights violation.
Myanmar Bestex Garment is a factory that employs about 800 people and produces MOHITO brand garments.
