Unprecedented overtime bans by Cambodian garment workers

Following on from the killings and repression earlier this year, and the international day of action in solidarity with Cambodian workers in February, garment workers have now organised a ban on overtime work. The workers are fighting for justice for their murdered comrades, the release of all imprisoned workers, better working conditions and a living wage. The garment and clothing sector is a global industry and with similar struggles faced by workers in Bangladesh, India and Pakistan, an organised and co-ordinated international response by workers is the way forward.
