"Gold Emperor shoe factory forced to not close on Sundays, [supervisors] behave rudely in the workplace" 28 June 2024

The factory will not have four Sundays off this month. In the workplace, the [supervisors] kicked...the workers.

[In] this shoe factory...[there] are around 2,000 workers...

Working hours are from 7:30 am to 4:30 pm. 1 hour meal break. [I] was called [to] a meeting 15 minutes before 7:30 a.m., and I was asked to come to work early every time...

...I had to come to the factory...without eating breakfast. When I arrived at the factory, I had to go to the meeting 15 minutes before, and it was inconvenient. If you don't eat breakfast, you may have [indigestion].

[They call for] OT every day until 7:30 p.m. In this month, I didn't miss [any] Sundays. Not even a day off. The workers are tired. I don't get a day off, so I get sick a lot.

From 12:30 PM to 7:30 PM [we work] without a break, [so] I am more tired. Even if they give you an hour's meal break, you [can't] take a full break...

Oh Super Daw Nu Nu Htay also threatened to [cut] the (professional fee) bonuses to workers who do not work overtime on weekends...
