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 looks through a window at a poorly constructed rest room reserved for them after she returned with her share of the plucked tea in the morning session 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).
