"WELCOMBINE LEATHER MYANMAR Co.,ltd Wage cut without permission at the factory", 28 February 2024
...At the Welcombine Leather Myanmar Co.,ltd factory...the workers said that the factory officials are cutting off the day pay...without permission...
...The factory officials did not give medical leave and...[the] Daily fee (10,000 kyats) is reportedly being cut.
WELCOMBINE LEATHER MYANMAR Co.,ltd factory... is said to be sewing PARFOIS brand backpacks with around 500 workers. The workers said that the factory hired the people [and paid] 50,000 kyats more per month...but the workers said that the amount was reduced.
"Because the factory sews bags, the machine is high, I have to sew with small machines. The employer told me that he would add 50,000 kyats when he called the high-end seamstresses to work. When [they] actually paid the wages, [they] only added ten and a half thousand kyats to the sewing machine [workers]" said a worker.
It is said that [high targets are] unfairly requested and [if the targets] are not met, the so-called line leaders are shouting and swearing every day.
The workers said that...the day laborers are fired without [being] appoint[ed] [as] a confirmed employee. He said that the factory official often illegally fired the experienced employees and did not inform them in advance if they were asked to work overtime. If you don't [work overtime], [you face] discrimination, The workers also said that the factory officials treated them with malice.
