Taslima is a garment factory worker from Bangladesh who helped form a union asking for better working conditions and was then fired. Now she has been blacklisted for over a year and can not get a job at any of the other factories. She told us about how supervisors sit around you, shout at you and even physically abuse you if you are not able to meet the target of 1000 - 1200 pieces per day.
