What Is Maternal Deprivation?
As cheap labor, migrant women face not only low wages, but also extended working hours (often 9 hours a day is considered normal working hours), forced overtime (one day of rest cannot be guaranteed every week), and extra points (even one day of normal working hours) 10-12 hours of work), unwilling to work overtime counts as absenteeism. Many surveys of women migrant workers point to similar issues, and our survey is no exception. More than half of the enterprises cannot purchase social insurance for migrant workers according to regulations, and a small number of enterprises do not reimburse medical expenses for work-related injuries, and more than 80% of enterprises do not have female workers during pregnancy and maternity benefits.
