We have to join hands and claim our rights and interests. We have to secure raises and demand compensation allowance for menstruation leave. They have that under unpaid leave. But it’s our rightful leave, spelled out in the labor laws. We should get paid for working on those days. When we’re just a minute late for work, we get a late stamp on our time card, which results in an hour’s pay cut. No wonder so little ends up in our hands, after all the deductions here and there. And that’s because we let the company do whatever they want without resisting.”
