UKRAINE WORKERS: WARTIME DIARIES
WHY WE’RE DIFFERENT
We are the largest U.S.-based international worker rights organization partnering directly with workers and their unions, and supporting their struggle for respect, fair wages, better workplaces and a voice in the global economy.
We value the dignity of work and workers. We know how all the work everyone depends on gets done–who picks the food for your table, cleans your home so you can go to the office, makes your clothes, keeps your streets clean. And at our core is every worker’s right to solve issues through collective action and to form unions.

According to David Welsh, program director for Cambodia at the Solidarity Center, “In Cambodia there’s a complete absence of living wage… This is a race to the bottom.”
A Factory or Family Dilemma
Being placed on consecutive short-term contracts in Cambodia’s predominantly female-staffed garment sector is forcing many women to choose between a family and a factory job. Solidarity Center country director Dave Welsh said factories frequently use fixed-duration contracts to cheat women out of maternity leave.

“Workers are protesting because they are being paid starvation wages,” says David Welsh, Solidarity Center country director. “There won’t be a solution to this problem until the brands are willing to increase the prices they pay their suppliers so that those suppliers can pay the workers decent wages.”
