Seventy-two garment workers were injured yesterday when the overloaded truck in which they were travelling overturned while passing a tuk-tuk near their factory in Chroy Changvar district.

 

About 80 workers, who live in Kandal province’s Muk Kampoul district, were making the hour-long journey to UDS Garment Co crammed in the back of an open truck when it overturned on National Road 6A, according to a Ministry of Labour release.

 

Forty-three of the workers were seriously injured, with injuries including broken bones, and 29 received minor injuries. Most were sent to Phnom Penh’s Calmette Hospital but others were treated at a local clinic. The National Social Security Fund said that it would cover their medical costs.
