Jordan factory closures prompt Lankan apparel workers to return home

Source
The closure of two apparel manufacturing units in Jordan, namely Aseel and High Apparel, have reportedly left many Sri Lankan apparel workers working in these two units jobless, who have now started coming back to Sri Lanka. 

This is as per reports, which further added that Indian investors running the factories, allegedly shut down the manufacturing facilities without any prior intimation to the workers. 

For the past few months, the Sri Lankan apparel workers along those from India have been facing challenges due to the factory closures even if reports from Bangladesh also suggest many garment workers who were employed in the Jordanian apparel factories earlier, came back home in the July-November period of the fiscal 2023-24. 

As per the Sri Lankan authorities, some more workers, who were employed with these two units, would be returning home soon.
