Female factory workers’ in outcry over unpaid maternity leave
TRADE unions are disgruntled that government continues to discriminate against women working in the textile and private security sectors when it comes to maternity leave payment.
Through a legal notice published last month, the government continues to afford women working in the textile and private security sectors 12-week maternity leave of which only six weeks is paid.
Ironically, their counterparts working in other sectors and those under government employment are afforded 12 weeks of paid maternity leave.
According to the Trade Unions interviewed by the Lesotho Times, the government gazetted Labour Wages (Notice of Intention to Submit Recommendations for Minimum Wages 2024/2024 to the Minister) 2024, which they complained favoured women working in the private sector and those employed by the government, over those working in the textile and private security sectors.
Speaking to the Lesotho Times yesterday, Independent Democratic Union of Lesotho (IDUL) Secretary General, May Rathakane, said the legislation was not only discriminatory but “also gave employers an opportunity to abuse workers”.
He said they had engaged Prime Minister Sam Matekane and Minister of Labour and Employment Tṧeliso Mokhosi on the matter from as far back as 2023. They were promised, Mr Rathakane said, that the situation would be resolved but nothing had happened.

My mind is definitely at peace when I'm on the road, helps this brain to think in a different perspective and the comfortability of being unknown in a place is soothing.

Hi, so I'm working on a story that's a huge fantasy world with different countries present and I want the references to real world cultures to be heartfelt and also I'm just generally enthusiastic about learning about new cultures, so like please do ask or message me talking about your culture because I am all ears and writing it the heck down.
(In the story I'm working on, I'm primarily researching Jewish, Peruvian, Irish, Balinese, several parts of Central Asia, and Sotho cultures, but honestly no matter where you're from, I wanna hear what you have to say! The world's a big beautiful place we could all learn more from!)
