The National Trade Union Federation (NTUF) staged a sit-in at Bilal Chowrangi in front of a factory in Korangi Industrial Area Wednesday held against growing exploitation of workers and violation of labour laws.
A large number of workers carrying banners and placards attended the protest and raised slogans for their demands. Speakers, including NTUF leaders Nasir Mansoor and Comrade Gul Rehman, and Home-based Women Workers Federation leader Zehra Khan, said industrialists were engaged in brutal economic exploitation of workers.
âAs per labour laws, it is mandatory to give written appointment letters to workers, but more than 95 per cent of workers are deprived of this legal right,â said Mansoor. âWithout appointment letters, these workers cannot avail their legal and constitutional rights and privileges.â
