Many people are unaware of the daily struggles that sewing machinist, machine operators, and fabric and textile manufacturers faced in the fashion industry . Those people are fighting for justice everyday, suffering from abuse, rape, and racial and equality, as stated by Rosa Parks (para:3, line:2)Available:https://www.reuters.com/business/retail-consumer/zara-workers-spain-start-protests-demand-higher-pay-2022-11-24/
How can clothes have a deeper meaning?
Fashion has also become highly politicized , with rules dictating how we should dress. I recall a long time age when ZARA workers at Spain began protesting for higher pay, and on wash care they wrote 'please help'. They were not treated well enough, workers were aren't allowed to take breaks e.g tea time, lunchs during a day. And their sizes as well (was not the normally size).
Everyone loves fashion and styles, but we don't know what happens before our clothes are manufactures. The tears that drop and pain workers had while constructing a garment.
Not just workers who were not happy but customers as well complaining about not receiving respects when they buy clothes from Zara.
Zara-owner reached the agreement to raise salaries by the average of 20%.
Furthermore, many textile workers suffer from Byssinosis (brown lungs), which is caused by cotton dust. Because the dyes they used were toxic, other companies recommended organic dyes
stated by Dr. S Das (para:8 line:1-3) Available:
As we all know, many countries rely on the creation of work possibilities. Pakistan is the top country recognized for supplying textiles, which necessitates unskilled labor, which is why many people working in this industry have this terrible disease.
