A Worker’s Brand is Possible

By Junya Yimprasert, Thai Labour Campaign

This is the story of what happened after over 900 workers arrived for work at the Bed & Bath Factory in Bangkok on the morning of October 7th 2002 to find that the gates were locked and their bosses had run away, leaving all without one cent of compensation. About 400 workers decided to fight for their rights and took action by camping on the ground-floor of the Ministry of Labour Building, where they remained for three months – until the authorities recognised their request in January 2003.

During the months preceeding the closure of the B & B factory the workers were producing for many brand names, in all for some 60 logos. The factory produced for brands like NIKE, ADIDAS, LEVI, HARLEY- DAVIDSON and for many smaller brands and shops in the USA ordering through agencies e.g. HADDAD the largest agency in the USA .

For 3 months the B & B workers stayed solid in their struggle for their rights and justice. And the result? They changed the law-of-the-land to the benefit of all workers throughout the whole country. And, furthermore, 40 of these workers started their own “Solidarity Group Factory”, the first worker’s factory in Thailand .
