"More than 50 day laborers have been suspended from work after GTIG HUASHENS Myanmar Garment exposed labor rights violations", 8 November 2022
It is reported that over 50 day laborers at the GTIG HUASHENS Myanmar Garment Factory have been suspended from their jobs due to the disclosure of labor rights violations.
"They all went on strike. This is a violation of the factory workers of the famous brand Primark, who are shouting that they are going to leave Myanmar," said an official of the United Federation of Unions of Myanmar (STUM).
GTIG Huasheng (Myanmar) garment factory is a Chinese-owned factory that manufactures PEP&CO and Primark famous brands.
In addition, garment workers are being forced to work overtime and are not being paid full overtime wages. Also, because the [factory] only cut the workers who are members of the organized union, the workers were cut from 60,000 to 80,000 kyats in their pay"
"What is happening to the sisters is that they have been working on day labor [contracts] for over two months. The sisters...have not been paid...The sisters do not get paid for the weekend....," said a worker...
STUM says that they cannot do things such as firing people for taking a day off and not giving them weekends off.
