"Request for 700 garments for 10 hours of work. Working without benefits", 5 February 2024

The...YOYIKA GARMENT factory opened in Shwe Linvan Industrial Zone, Hlaing Thayar Township, Yangon Region, with more than 600 workers...The workers say that they are sewing brand shirts...and they are asking for a set standard of 700 pieces of fabric for 10 hours of work.

"There are about 40 workers on one production line. They ask for 700 pieces of fabric per 10 hours of work. If the employe[e] does not meet [target] requested by the employer, the Super[visors] will shout loudly from the top of the production line...

There are also day laborers in the workplace, and although they have 6 months of experience, they are only forced to work as day laborers without appointing [the worker as] a confirmed employee and only pay 3,600 kyats...a day...

The worker said that they would like to find a solution because they are not entitled to the legal benefits...such as casual leave and medical leave.

As a worker, if you take sick leave, if you miss a day without receiving leave, [and your wages] will be cut [by] 5,800 kyats per day...

The worker said that there is no cleaning staff inside the machine line, and the garment workers are still taking turns cleaning.

The worker said that without the establishment of a trade union in the workplace, there is no resolution of workplace disputes.

According to the workers, they want to resolve issues such as to provide the workers with the social security benefits they are entitled to.
