Garment workers in Cambodia demand severance pay

About 208 workers from the Chung Fai Knitwear factory in Cambodia are still fighting for justice one year on from the sudden closure of their factory. On 1 July 2016, these workers, mostly women, were terminated without notice, without severance pay and without receiving their final salaries for the previous month.  They were producing products for UK brands, Marks and Spencer and Bonmarche, as well as Canadian brand Nygård.  They are now demanding that the companies behind these labels pay what they are owed.
