Comment on jobs created (domestic)
The workers are paid badly- with payslips ranging from $1.17-$2.22 per day. In conjunction, if workers do not reach their daily targets they do not get paid. Workers at the plantations complain of housing in severe disrepair, wages just over a dollar a day for intense field labour and a lack of proper medical care in the rural region. Following the publication of the social infrastructure at the plantations the company is assessing and redesigning the social infrastructure.
