On the 'International Labour Day,' Hari Welfare Association (HWA) lamented that across rural areas of Sindh, workers in agriculture, farms, and brick kilns, who are in millions, hardly earn Rs 6000 per month against Rs 17,500 minimum wage promised by the Sindh government for unskilled workers in 2019.
HWA grieved that young people without employment, education and skill improvement opportunities are compelled to work around fourteen to sixteen hours at grocery shops, restaurants, and workshops just for Rs5000 per month in rural parts of Sindh. Of these workers, women and children are at the lowest ebb to receive the wages.
To mark the 'International Labour Day,' a meeting was held at the head office of Hari Welfare Association attended by HWA president Akram Khaskheli, labour activists Hussain Bux Chutto Manzoor Laghari Peasant and others.
The meeting participants demanded the government to take notice against violation of labour rights and ensure the implementation of labour laws across the Sindh.
