Tea Estate Workers's Struggle For Higher Daily Wages
This photograph taken on Tuesday 5 February 2019 shows a Sri Lankan female tea plantation worker seated as she rests after returning with the plucked tea in the morning session, surrounded by her companions near a tea factory at Hatton, Nuwara Eliya district some 121 Kms away from capital city, Colombo, Sri Lanka. Sri Lankan tea Estate trade unions have demanded and protested stating that that their workers basic daily wage should be increased from Rs. 500 (US$ 2.8) to Rs. 1000 (US$. 5.6).
