Workers of cricket player Shakib Al Hasan ‘Sakib Al Hasan Agro Farm Limited’ (crab hatchery) in the Burigoalini area of Shyamnagar upazila in Satkhira staged a protest on Monday demanding wage arrears. They said they had been forced to protest for the past four months without charging them.
However, Shakib’s friend and business partner, Sagir Hossain Pavel, thinks that someone has fueled the labor movement.
Today is Tuesday afternoon on the mobile phone Our timeK. Powell said: ‘Since we had a fixed salary payment date, we should have waited until then. I think someone is feeding or doing something. ‘
At least 200 workers at the Shakib hatchery protested yesterday demanding their wages. They said they had not been paid for four months. They are having a difficult coronavirus outbreak. There is no food in the house in Corona’s situation. Children spend their days without eating.
However, Sagir Hossain Pavel claimed that the workers would get a month’s wages, not four. Only five or six of them will receive four months of salary.
Pavel, a friend of the former cricketer, said: “Initially, the salary was due in January. Since then we have been pitching every month. Because there was no job. Those who were on the farm, staying there, will only receive four months. Only five or six people will receive four months of salary.
“We were supposed to pay our wages by April 30,” Pavel said of the workers’ allegations that they had not been paid more than once. We have arranged it that way. We will pay the salary within 30 days. Although it was not a movement, we would give. We have moved forward with that plan. ‘
When asked why his January payment was in April, Pavel said: “Our exports were closed, many orders were canceled, orders were stuck. Products for coronavirus blocking could not be brought in. Take it later. We have been doing this for four years. Those who were workers have been working with us for four years. We will take them again. This problem has started since February. Before, when it was working, everything was fine. We never had a breakdown. That’s the first problem “.
Shakib’s business partner added: “Shakib did not know all of this. We used to take care of ourselves. This problem is caused by the coronavirus. When Shakib heard about the protest, he decided to pay from his personal account.
Apologizing to the workers for the delay, Shakib’s friend said: “I (Pavel) and another of our partners, Imdadul Haque, apologize for the delay.”
Pavel said Shakib Al Hassan, the owner of the firm, is now in the United States with his family. He could not find the farm due to his busy schedule.
