Factory and union stitch up agreement

More than 300 striking workers at Jie Wei garment factory in the capital’s Dangkor district will return to work today after successful negotiations yesterday settled a labour dispute that led to a three-day strike last week. Factory management agreed to nine of the 11 demands made by workers, representatives of the company and workers said yesterday, after meeting with officials from the Ministry of Labour. The two demands the company did not agree to were half-pay for workers on maternity leave and the re-employment of seven workers who had been allegedly ousted without just cause.
