I am Sumathi from PTS. Many things are told about GAFWU. There is a company called Celebrity fashions in Mepz. More than 2000 workers work there. More than 200 workers are members in our union. First we protested for minimum wage for them and also leave was a big problem there. They didnt know how to take ESI leave. We gave them training and in the year 2017 they protested for 20% bonus. Already they asked for 20% bonus and with the help of union we got the bonus. After minimum wages they said they will give only 8% bonus. Workers spoke to us and protested inside the campus gave petition in company and asked for bonus. Company immediately suspended them on temporary basis. Union spoke to all the suspended workers and made them to get salary without fail for 2 years until the case is over. Initially they got 100% salary and later they got 75% of salary. Those who were in internal investigation didnt work properly
