WITH regard to the information mentioned on the social network pages about sacking employees from Pioneer Manufacturing (Thailand) Co Ltd in Uthai, Ayutthaya, Thailand, the Department of Labour verified the news and helps the employees get entitlements.
VOA Burmese Facebook page on 24 May 2023 mentioned that “Pioneer Manufacturing (Thailand) Co Ltd issued an announcement on sacking 411 Myanmar employees in Uthai of Ayutthaya in Thailand and gave some 97 million baht in total as compensation to them, but Thai Minister of Labour Mr Suchart Chomklin instructed regional officials to verify whether such case was in conformity with the rules and regulations and to help those jobless enjoy the social security rights”.
The labour diplomat in Bangkok of Thailand enquired the Thai Labour Department and Ayutthaya region labour right protection office about the event and received the information as follows: —
(a) Pioneer Manufacturing (Thailand) Co Ltd is operating the manufacturing of audio electronic spare parts in cars with the strength of 1,549 workers, And
(b) It suspended 416 workers on 19 May 2023 due to the decline in offer, and those suspended workers were Thais, not Myanmar workers.
To have correct and accurate information, the labour diplomat from the Labour Diplomatic Office in Bangkok held a meeting with officials from the Thai Labour Department and Ayutthaya region labour right protection office on 26 May 2023. It was found that no Myanmar workers were involved in the list of 416 sacked workers due to declining of the work orders of Pioneer Manufacturing (Thailand) Co Ltd; and there were no Myanmar workers working at the factory. Japanese labour leaders and Thai workers are working at the factory; and compensation has been given to the sacked workers under the labour law.
As such, the true information was released that the news of sacking 411 Myanmar workers by Pioneer Manufacturing (Thailand) Co Ltd mentioned on VOA Burmese Facebook page was not correct.
