I am Santhanamari. Already a lady from Murugappa colony has called. She has worked in hotel but she has not been given salary from 1 year. whenever she goes and asks they are asking her to come the next day. She has recorded about it in UK. PTS office is in Ambattur. If she comes here and joins union, and tells about it clearly by coming here, it will be easier for us to ask the owner.
Leone: Hello friends. Today we have Ambattur office incharge paul kani. Hello Mam. Kani: Hello sir. L: Please tell us more about you. What's your qualification and which is your native place. K: I am from Ratthinamangalam from Kanchipuram dist. I have studied till 12th. and completed typewriting Tamil and English. L: Did you work in any union or any mills? Or how did you enter this field? K: I met Sandhanamari mam on June 8th, 2015 while dropping my daughter to school. I never that there is a women worker union. I live in Ambattur area. While talking to her, she told me that there is a vacancy in the Ambattur office. During those time i was working as a typewriter in Taluk office on the contract basis. That was not a regular job. So i thought i ll go and meet them. When i went there, i got introduced to PTS. I worked her and i really like the job. And continuously working for his. L: What did you learn after coming to Union? K: Naturally i am not a talking person. I talk only with my family members, i have never spoken to anyone other than my family members. But after joining here one main problem was i cannot talk to those who come to the office. Writing work is really easy but i had to talk to people who come there and write down their problems. If mam is there, then i have no problem, i will do my work but if mam is not there, i had no other option than talking to the visitors. So i started talking and now people say i talk too much. Earlier i used to talk and pass information to those who are at home. But now i am passing the information like Voter ID correction, health camps etc through Urimai kural. This makes me happy. L: Every human being has a social responsibility. Being a woman you found your social responsibility and doing it. Is it so? K: Yes of course. When i used to be at home, i used to think that only i am facing the problem, other than me all are doing good. But after joining union, i realize that many women are suffering alot. By seeing them i realize that i am really blessed. We were taking the young widows list. Many people come here just by reference. Many dont know what to do after their husband's death. Almost everyone died due to alcohol addiction and few died due to the accident. And the women come here they have 2 kids. Their age will be 28-30-32. A person named Kumuda spoke to me. I couldn't sleep that night. Repeatedly she was coming in my thoughts. Because she has no background. Even her In-laws side they have no background. They work in an export company. I am going for housekeeping work. I have to work and take care of 2 kids. I have to eat. Dont know how all this is possible. 1st day she was crying alot. She didnt listen to any of our words. After 2 days again she came back and spoke to us. She said, she has applied for police work under the young widow category. She seemed to be fine that day. Even we gave her some advice. Every woman are facing problems. Please remove the mask which you are wearing. I have told this in Urimai kural few months back. Every woman has talent but after marriage, you wear a mask saying i am a wife of alcohol addict, i am this, i am that. Please remove this mask. Be yourself. Only then we can grow in our life. This is my view. L: Wonderful!!

Owner's husband: Even my mom will be of your age. We are taking care of them by not making her do any work. But you are also of her same age and making you work in front of her is making us feel bad. helper: Oh thats it!!Thats nothing!! Are we both same!! Owner's husband: No not like that. This is your resting time. Go and take rest. If you need any help, please dont hesitate to call us. We will do our best. Owner: Thank you so much ma. Helper: What they said is right!! I am not ale to work like earlier. Not ale to stand up, or lift anything. I am finding difficult to catch my breath. They are good people, they noticed this and asked me to stop the work. But my situation is, I can eat only if I work. If not this house, tomorrow i have to search for another house. But even that house is for how many days!! I am 52 years old. Another 2 or 3 years i can go to work. After that?? Just like what they said!! Nobody is going to call me for work because i am old and they feel pity. No work means no income. Without work, how can i eat an live?? Narrator: Hello to all listeners who are taking part in all UK programs actively. Your 2 questions for this week. 1) What is the age decided by Govt for retirement? 2) What will be the right age for domestic labours?? Answer these questions by pressing 3.
