Khaadi labour issues
According to details, large protests have been held by Khaadi workers
in Karachi and Lahore during the past week as workers alleged that
management was responsible for unfair practices and inhumane
working conditions.One of the accusations leveled against Khaadi was
that workers were not handed employment letters after being
appointed by the brand. This leaves the workers with no legal
protection after they are fired or terminated and the terms of their
employment remain vague.Another accusation leveled against the
management is that it drove a female worker to commit suicide after
she was heavily penalised for taking an unscheduled lunch break. It is
also alleged by workers against Khaadi that the company deducts
Employee Old Age Benefits Institution (EOBI) contributions from the
salaries of workers but does not provide them with the amount. In the
same way, it does not deposit the Sindh Employees' Social Security
Institution (SESSI) contributions with the department.Workers have
complained that they are not offered clean drinking water at the
workplace and there are restrictions as to the amount of times they can
use the toilet during a day. Also, complaints have surfaced that Khaadi
does not pay its workers if they get injured during the course of their
duty which is a requirement of law and labourers are made to work for
more than 12 hours and on national holidays.
