Join us for an exclusive premiere of Clean Clothes Campaign's new documentary: How to Steal your Workers' Future - an intimate portrait of two garment workers with drastically different lives.

After the screening we will host a panel discussion with speakers Thulsi Narayanasamy, senior labour researcher from Business and Human Rights Resource Centre, and Indonesian union leaders Elly Rosita Silaban and Dian Septi Trisnanti, who will discuss severance theft in the garment industry.

How to Steal your Workers' Future, is a powerful portrayal of the long-term devastation that severance theft causes for garment workers and their families. Two women speak for the first time on camera about their experiences after being laid off from factories they were once dependent on. The film features Murni, an Indonesian garment worker who continues to fight for the $5.5 million (USD) in severance legally-owed to her and 2,000 other workers of the Jaba Garmindo factory since its bankruptcy in 2015. Uniqlo was a major buyer at Jaba Garmindo, and the documentary highlights the urgent need for brand accountability, as well as the exponential rise in severance theft cases since Covid-19.
